Morrissey’s attempt to build off late-2025 momentum hits a complete thud

by

It’s fair to question why anyone bothers buying tickets to a Morrissey concert. He cancels or delays shows so often that when he actually performs, it’s genuinely surprising. Fans are left anxiously waiting until the very last minute, hoping he’ll appear.

2026 could be a big year for Morrissey if he chooses to release new music. He hinted at the end of 2025 that he’d signed a record deal with Sire Records, the label that originally released The Smiths’ albums and also worked with bands like Depeche Mode. He reportedly already has a completed album ready for release.

It’s impossible to say when the new album will come out, and like with most projects from this artist, the timeline is uncertain. He could have given fans a clue about the release date after sharing his personal good news, and even played some of the new material during his upcoming concerts.

Morrissey begins 2026 by letting fans down again

So, I was really looking forward to seeing this performer kick off the new year, but it’s not looking good. He had shows scheduled, starting with one in Rancho Mirage on January 3rd, but it’s been postponed. Apparently, he had a bad reaction to some medication he was taking, according to his website. Total bummer, honestly.

Morrissey recently canceled all of his South American concerts, citing severe exhaustion. It’s a familiar pattern with the singer – he often faces health issues or simply feels too tired to perform.

Many fans are likely wondering why a famously controversial alternative singer seems to dislike them. It’s frustrating to be drawn in by new songs and shows, only to feel disappointed in the end.

After years of unpredictable behavior, this artist has likely lost a large part of his fanbase, and record labels have definitely moved on. He’s simply too erratic to consistently deliver the entertainment people expect from someone in his position. While his lyrics once resonated with many, he now seems determined to distance himself from his remaining fans.

Morrissey’s fans often buy tickets to his shows, but he frequently cancels, leaving them disappointed. While his new music could be fantastic, we may never get the chance to hear it live. So, the next time he asks for our money, it’s fair to say he needs to prove he deserves it first.
