Our Take

Morrissey, the patron saint of self-deprecating vegans everywhere, is back with his fourth solo album, "Vauxhall And I." This album is like a stroll through the overgrown garden of Morrissey's mind, filled with wit, melancholy, and a healthy dose of Morrissey's signature melodrama.

Opening track "Now My Heart Is Full" sets the tone for the album, with its swelling orchestration and Morrissey's yearning vocals. It's a song that is simultaneously grandiose and introspective, much like Morrissey himself.

Songs like "The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get" and "Speedway" showcase Morrissey's ability to turn a phrase with wit and venom, while the hauntingly beautiful "I Am Hated For Loving" delves into the darker corners of Morrissey's emotional landscape.

But it's not all doom and gloom on "Vauxhall And I." Tracks like "Hold Onto Your Friends" and "Lifeguard Sleeping, Girl Drowning" inject a bit of whimsy into the mix, reminding listeners that Morrissey is not afraid to have a bit of fun amidst all the angst.

Overall, "Vauxhall And I" is a solid addition to Morrissey's discography, showcasing his continued ability to craft songs that are both emotionally resonant and darkly humorous. Whether you're a die-hard Morrissey fan or just looking for some quirky tunes to groove to, this album is definitely worth a listen.
