Morrissey Swords[wpaudio text="Morrissey - Ganglord" url="http://tony2nice.green.feralhosting.com/data/Morrissey%20-%20Swords%20%5bV0%5d/04%20-%20Ganglord.mp3"]

The best hair in rock is back with Swords, Morrissey’s newest b-sides collection. Tracks are leftovers from his last three album sessions: You Are the Quarry, Ringleader of the Tormentors, and Years of Refusal.

It’s no secret we’re huge fans of all things Smiths and Morrissey ’round these parts, and when I got ahold of this, it wasn’t a question of if to post a track, but which? Do I pick the one I like the most, or the one most representative of what you’ve come to expect in Morrissey?

How about a track that does both equally well? The one that caught my attention first and sustained it the longest: “Ganglord”.

As for the album, Morrissey’s b-sides are always a pretty safe bet on quality, and Swords is no exception. To be honest, I actually like this a bit more than his last album, Years of Refusal, and I think you might feel the same after a good listen.
