Morrissey Reveals U.S. Release Details, Tour | Pitchfork Morrissey Reveals U.S. Release Details, Tour Signs to Lost Highway
After
much drama,
Morrissey has settled on a U.S. label. (But really, what in Morrissey's life doesn't involve drama?)
Lost Highway, the primarily Americana label known for artists such as Ryan Adams, Lucinda Williams, Johnny Cash, and Willie Nelson, will release Morrissey's forthcoming album
Years of Refusal in conjunction with Morrissey's own Attack imprint on February 17, 2009 in the United States. (It's out February 16 via
Decca/
Polydor in the UK.)
How stoked do you think Ryan Adams is now that he's on the same label as Morrissey? As previously reported,
Years of Refusal will be preceded by the UK single for "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris", out February 9. It features the B-sides "Because of My Poor Education" and "Shame Is the Name". "Shame" features backing vocals from Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders.
Morrissey has lined up a lengthy world tour in support of the album, including a spring run across America.
And no, the Smiths aren't getting back together, despite whatever rumor you might have heard this week.
