Free Music Notes for Ringleader of the Tormentors
Free Music Review: Even More Depressing Than Usual!
Hit: 5 Stars
The lyrics are less poetic and more blunt/hateful than previously. At least half of the album has to do with death, dying, or killing; yet Ringleader of the Tormentors is still very listenable. I think that the music and his vocals are just as strong as ever though, and maybe even more so than on You Are The Quarry. Many people would probably disagree with me, though. YATQ does have a little bit better production, but Tony Visconti still does an excellent job. It just sounds a little "muddy," which could have been his intention anyway to even out the mood of the album. Overall, ROTT makes for a great listen. Just don't listen to it if your depressed to begin with....or really happy!
Ringleader of the Tormentors Poster
Japanese pressing does not include and bonus material. Production on the Morrissey album Ringleader Of The Tormentors has been undertaken by Tony Visconti, who is in Rome with Morrissey and the band. Morrissey is delighted with the album which he describes as ''the most beautiful, perhaps the most gentle album, so far.'' 2006.If you don't get your hopes up too high, you'll be pleased enough with Morrissey's eighth studio effort. This is not an easy thing to do, of course, even for the casual fan. After all, not only was the Moz's 2004 You Are the Quarry a total return to form after enough of an absence to cause all of the cells in your body to regenerate, but this terrifically titled album finds the iconoclastic singer working with legendary Bowie and T. Rex producer Tony Visconti, all the while aided and abetted by soundtrack giant Ennio Morricone and a children's chorus. How could that go wrong? None of it goes wrong, per se. This isn't a wholesale reworking of an artist's approach ? la Trans or something. It simply sounds rather rushed and generic: even the lyrics seem, bizarrely, un-subtle. Fans will no doubt need it (and likely own it already), but neophytes to the exquisite pleasures of this musical dandy are directed elsewhere in his catalog. --Mike McGonigal
