Review In 21 years of going it alone Morrissey has produced nine studio albums and just as many compilations. Topping a year that has seen a live DVD and unnecessary remasters of mid-1990s albums Southpaw Grammar and Maladjusted – in addition to beefy studio album Years of Refusal – is Swords, Morrissey’s first collection to be entirely made up of B sides.  In addition to an eight-track bonus disc culled from a concert in Warsaw, Swords features 18 B sides spooling back from this year to 2004, the year Morrissey returned from years of stabbing pins into effigies of Mike Joyce – not to mention establishment opprobrium – to be garlanded as the saviour of intelligent pop with You Are the Quarry. That album’s singles provide most of the tracks here, although those from the luscious Ringleader of the Tormenters era dominate the stronger first half.Though the majority is co-written with band mainstay Alain Whyte, the two proper stand-outs, the open-hearted Christian Dior and the experimental Sweetie-Pie, were respectively written with band veteran Boz Boorer and ex-keyboard player Michael Farrell. Some of the most out-there minutes Morrissey’s put his name to, the looping, warped Sweetie-Pie features the four-octave vocals of one-time support act Kristeen Young and helps form the three-track highlight of the album with Christian Dior and the swaggering, Chrissie Hynde-backed Shame is the Name. From Kirsty MacColl’s sweet sass on Interesting Drug to Siouxsie’s velveteen tongue on Interlude, it’s always been welcome to hear Morrissey’s laggard croon lightened by a female voice, but few if any tracks here match the calibre of those two songs. Not that there’s been a fatal lack of quality control – there’s no Slum Mums here, thankfully –  it’s more that Swords largely sounds like what it is: an off-cuts album from someone who shouldn’t be content with the plodding mediocrity of the likes of I Knew I Was Next. Though there’s the occasional modest jewel to be found here – including the ‘hidden’, roughshod cover of New York Dolls’ Human Being – it’s hard to work out who’ll make the investment bar those that dissect every eyebrow quiver on the fan boards. --Nadine McBay Find more music at the BBC This link will take you off in a new window ## Images ![Swords - Image 1](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51WZVlj-VOL.jpg) ![Swords - Image 2](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41cHdwoB1UL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gems included *by P***T on 2 November 2009* Live performances usually sound better at the time I guess. Even taking that into account the freebie shipping with this is in my view pretty uninspiring. My advice, unless you are a collector rather than just a fan, would be to eschew this Warsaw concert malarky and download the tracks on the main disk you don't already have. To be totally honest though, you have got to be a pretty die hard Mozette to enjoy the self-indulgent "Sweetie Pie" or the uncharacteristically prosaic offering "Children in Pieces" so I would hang on to your 69p in those cases.Having said that, there is a curious album-like quality to this collection which leaves me contented enough that I parted with £12. Be sure about this however. Morrissey is not listening to our reviews of this release, be they positive or negative. Long may that continue. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ b sides galore *by M***N on 14 June 2019* Morrissey has done some brilliant b sides. you often wonder why some of them didn't make it onto albums. I have all the songs and just bought the cd for my collection. all quality songs no fillers ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ b side Moz *by J***K on 23 June 2015* Any release by Morrissey is worth a listen but his track record of b sides is very strong. Worth it for the cover of Drive in Saturday alone but has many other great tracks on it --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.dk/products/59416964-swords](https://www.desertcart.dk/products/59416964-swords) --- *Product available on Desertcart Denmark* *Store origin: DK* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
