Our Take

Review:

Ah, Morrissey, the man, the myth, the mopey legend. The Best Of compilation is a comprehensive look at the career of one of music's most enigmatic figures. From his days with The Smiths to his solo work, this album is a must-have for any fan of alternative rock.

The collection kicks off with classics like "Everyday is Like Sunday" and "Suedehead," setting the tone for the melancholic yet strangely uplifting journey that lies ahead. Morrissey's unmistakable croon cuts through the airwaves, delivering lyrics that are as cutting as they are poetic.

Tracks like "Irish Blood, English Heart" and "First of the Gang to Die" showcase Morrissey's ability to tackle complex socio-political issues with wit and charm. His love songs, such as "There is a Light That Never Goes Out" and "You're the One for Me, Fatty," are equally poignant, capturing the bittersweet essence of love and longing.

Of course, no Morrissey album would be complete without a healthy dose of self-deprecation and dark humor. Tracks like "November Spawned a Monster" and "The More You Ignore Me, the Closer I Get" highlight Morrissey's unique ability to turn his own pain into art.

Overall, The Best Of is a superb collection that showcases Morrissey at his best (and worst). Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, this album is sure to transport you to the moody, introspective world of Morrissey. Cheers to the mopey maestro!
