EARLY PRAISE FOR ‘I AM NOT A DOG ON A CHAIN’

⭐⭐⭐⭐- MOJO MAGAZINE

"Arguably his strongest collection in years” 9/10 - LOUDER THAN WAR

 

Morrissey has released his new track ‘Knockabout World’, the 3rd to be taken from his new album, due next month. The song opens with Morrissey’s captivating vocals singing “Congratulations - you have survived, Congratulations - you're still alive!” filling the track with melodrama…it’s a catchy 3 minute song featuring synth riffs, twinkling electronics and jangling guitars which build to an orchestra of lush euphoric strings.

Morrissey’s 13th Solo Album and 3rd studio album for BMG, ‘I Am Not A Dog On A Chain’, is set to be released on March 20th, 2020. Full album track listing can be seen below and fans can pre-order the album here: https://morrissey.lnk.to/chain

The album, produced by Grammy award winning producer Joe Chiccarelli(Beck, Tori Amos, The Strokes, The Killers, The White Stripes, The Raconteurs, etc), and recorded at Studio La Fabrique in Saint- Rémy de Provence, France, and Sunset Sound in Hollywood, California, also  saw it’s first single, ‘Bobby Don’t You Think They Know?’, featuring backing vocals by legendary R+B Icon Thelma Houston and second single ‘Love Is On Its Way Out’ released to great critical and fan response.

 

Morrissey recently announced his residency “Morrissey: Viva Moz Vegas” at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip this summer. He will play five nights, June 26 – 27, July 1, July 3 – 4. Tickets go on sale to the general public beginning Friday, Feb. 28 at 10 a.m. PT.

This new limited run of shows, set to kick off the launch of the ‘I Am Not A Dog On A Chain’ album, promise to be not-to-be missed affairs if reaction to Morrissey’s 2019 U.S. dates is any indication. Press who covered the U.S. Autumn tour raved about the powerful performances as some of Morrissey’s best ever, while continually commenting on the strength of his “ageless” vocals.
