Morrissey Says Release of His Album ‘Bonfire of the Teenagers’ Has Been ‘Gagged’


Morrissey claimed the release of his album 'Bonfire of the Teenagers' has been "gagged" by record labels.

The tragic incident resulted in 22 deaths and galvanized the city of Manchester, who claimed Oasis ‘ song “Don’t Look Back in Anger” as their anthem. “But, in this sad country of ours, to understand the full meaning of the attack is to be guilty, and this is why the ‘don’t look back in anger’ command always struck me as derisive and not at all words of social harmony.” That October, Morrissey proclaimed that Bonfire of Teenagers found a home at Capitol Records, and that the album would feature an all-star guest list that included Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Chad Smith and Flea, Iggy Pop, Andrew Watt, Josh Klinghoffer, and Cyrus.
