Morrissey’s first novel is out and … well, it’s not very good. But the classic Moz tropes are present and correct
Michael Hann vs. Morrissey
[...] rock’n’roll was invented for teenagers, and to dismiss a group because teenagers like them seems to be particularly crabby and middle-aged. And to dismiss them because it is, especially, teenage girls who like them seems like nothing so much as sexism: are the opinions of teenage girls actually worth less than those of other people?

Rejections - “One Machine”
Michael Hann's new release as Rejections is a fantastically eerie and constricting drone, perfect for a saturday night in the gutter in some old coal mining town. Shapes shift and haunt the interlaced pathways throughout the release. There is no hope, there is nothing to hold on to. Occasionally some high-pitched screeches sound from far away to remind us, that we are probably not all alone in this mouldering factory building, that there is something hidden in the shadows, but we just can't figure out if it's there to help or destroy us.

Clips of Michael Hann's interview with Matt Healy of the 1975 that I found particularly interesting. Read the full story here.
Until late last year he was still living at home. Then, as he puts it, "my band took off, my family fell apart. My parents got divorced. It's kinda good – no good marriage ever ended in divorce. If two people had a really good thing going on and they had to get divorced, that would be really sad. But that's never happened once. That's fine. That was a long time coming. December of last year I went on tour and they sold that house. I went home for two days to move out of my house, and I wrote and recorded Is There Somebody Who Can Watch Me?, the last song on the album, about that moment. So I left and I've not really been home since. But I've fucking embraced it, man. Because you take the good with the bad. I don't have a home, but I have a thousand people come and see me, whatever city I'm in. If you can't feel at home there, where can you feel at home?

"I feel like there's a genuine hole in me. The little death, almost. I need stimulation. I used to need physical stimulation constantly, whether that be from listening to the sound of my own voice, or flirting with guys or girls. I'm not bisexual, but that moment when you realise someone likes you – it's the best feeling in the world. If you could bottle it …"
He drifts off for a moment. And then he asks that question. "Do you like me?"
