Morrissey's Decline
» Music
Morrissey has had a long, long reign as a perpetually hip, alternative sex symbol. Though some have thought of him mostly as a closet case. Inevitably as youth fades, so does erotic sensibility:
… It is shot against a white backdrop by a photographer who appears to have no concept of lighting or posture (the fat one, shoved ingloriously to the back, is actually pursing his lips in beleaguered amusement in the selected frame), less so of the magnificent physical potential of the male form. As Morrissey adjusts his quiff, you can only exhale a long, deep and regretful sigh. The day that the man who once defined iconographic sleeve art takes visual cues from the Red Hot Chili Peppers is the day the music died. Or at least took a long snooze with some prescription tranquilisers.
