Johnny Marr - Call The Comet (2018) Flac/Mp3

Johnny Marr has announced his first solo album in nearly four years. Dubbed Call the Comet, it’s slated for arrival on June 15th through New Voodoo.

The forthcoming record marks The Smiths co-founder’s third solo full-length following 2014’s acclaimed Playland. Recorded in Manchester at the artist’s own Crazy Face studios, it’s said to be “set in the not-too-distant future,” according to a statement from Marr, “and is mostly concerned with the idea of an alternative society. It’s my own magic realism.”

Speaking further to Rolling Stone, the UK-based musician noted that the 2016 Election served as something of a jumping off point for him creatively. “I wouldn’t call it a concept record,” he explained. “But it’s got a unifying theme going through it about the Earth welcoming a different intelligence from the cosmos to save us from our own plight. The title Call The Comet is sort of a conscious plea for a new way.”
