yeah, i liked good news a lot too, i liked the songwriting and the cabaret feeling to it all. i can see people not liking it because most of brock's whammy bar guitar riffs were gone, but was seriously a good album.
from his post smiths projects, i guess johnny marr is now desperate for anythging, you know he is pissed at morrisey for gaining so much good press and record sales recently, so he might think that by joining the mouse he'll get more attention without caving to a forced smiths reunion which is not gonna happen anyway. or probably he needs money, knowing that the next modest mouse is going to sell like crazy.
i'm eager to listen to their collaboration, part of which comes from expecting his genius guitar playing to fit a very different kind of band. being second bananas to a younger band is definitely weird and somehow wrong; but, then again, pat smear did join both nirvana and foo fighters, so weirder things have happened before.
what did youi expect from nme? they are the eNeMEe of rock n' roll and know shit about music. i hate british music tabloids.
