Speaking to Rolling Stone magazine over email, about his new album, when asked to explain the album title, Morrissey said “My concern wanders to anyone feeling academically or spiritually low in high school… directionless or hopeless. Can young people ever be carefree again? It’s a question.” He continued to explain how this album will be different from his 2014 release, ‘World Peace is None of Your Business’ “It’s certainly louder, and although people have been trained to not expect very much from modern music, there is, I find, always so much to say and play, and here it is.”
