Morrissey announces new studio LP 'Low In High School'


Morrissey has announced he'll return with his 11th studio album in November. The new album, Low In High School was recorded in France and Italy earlier this year, and arrives November 17th through BMG via Morrissey's newly launched label Etienne Records. BMG is thrilled to have partnered with the legend:

"There are not many artists around today that can compare to Morrissey. He is an extraordinary talent. He is prodigious, literate, witty, elegant and above all, courageous. His lyrics, humour and melodies have influenced many generations. The music on this new landmark record will speak for itself and we are delighted to welcome him to BMG."

So far Morrissey has not unveiled the cover art or opened pre-orders, however the album will be available on a variety of formats including standard and limited edition vinyl; CD, cassette, and digital album download. Stay tuned for details.

Morrissey released his last album World Peace Is None Of Your Business in 2014 through Harvest. That partnership didn't go so well and Morrissey severed ties with the label shortly after its release.


One live date has been announced in advance of Low In High School - Morrissey performs November 10th at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. More dates are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
