Final Note
And those albums are not all. We still have Metal, Pop, Progressive
Rock, Hip-hop, or whatever other genre you might prefer. All a music enthusiast
needs to do is to look for whatever kind of music she loves listening to.
There’s the Internet, Google, and Wikipedia. Make use of them!
In this Internet age, there’s no room for complaints concerning the lack of new interesting music, because the problem, really, is the lack of a sense of adventure and the initiative in some people. Don’t be one of them!
My favorite song off Johnny Marr's latest, second album is "The Trap."

My instant favorite song from Morrissey's latest, 10th album is "Staircase at the University," primarily because of the flamenco-flavored guitar adlib near the end of the song.
