"Swords" is Morrisey's latest solo album technically speaking. The album itself is made up of B-sides that morriseey left off his last two albums. With this in mind the album itself is not truly a full budget release, but more of throwback back to fans.
The pace of the album is very slow, letting simplistic drum beats carry each song while Morrissey's wit and vocal melodies add musical flourish. Morrisey's almost mournful vocals work to compliment the very upbeat tone of the guitar. Listening to his very "base" style reincarnated yet again is a reminder of his influence on modern indie music and why his fan base still runs strong.
For fans this compilation album will surely be a pleasure to hear as it is only more of what they have grown to love and for everyone else, 'Swords' is a relaxing and enjoyable musical experience. Morriseys style has yet to become outdated, a statement proven with this collection of songs.
4/5
