...whole album. It is sparely orchestrated, with a slight mischievous twinkle that distinguishes the piece from the synth-pop to which Morrissey occasionally threatens to descend and allows the listener to concentrate on the words and delivery. The lyrics are vintage Morrissey, telling a tale of failed, confused lust; there are “explosive kegs/ between my legs” which soon leads to “I’m spreading your legs/With mine in-between.” The difference is that the confused lust succeeds this time. And then? “The heart feels free...
...liberal senators feels the need to brag about fining immigrant families and sending undocumented workers “to the back of the line,” something is wrong.

...Spider Woman, turns Gandalf into a curious, wispy thing, with eccentric line readings and maundering instead of majesty. But Michael Therriault's Gollum is a sensation. As he hisses, squeals and writhes to express Gollum's two warring psyches (the hobbit he was, the half-life wreck his ring lust has made of him), Therriault gives the most astonishing, show-stealingly schizo performance since Steve Martin's half-man-half-woman...
