New album before the end of March 20XXX!

Probably this.
It's quite a genius way of promoting without having to spend a mountain of money on promotion

Just read these 2 comments on a hmmm -cough- Morrissey board :

"Reeves has made a post about it on social media and Eden Gallup has posted lyrics to the song Alone. Looks like it’s happening!"
&
"Eden Gallup and Reeves have made hints on their respective accounts. The official website change is the real turning point."

Anyone can confirm ?

As a coda : it will be hard for me to play any instruments until it's released (fingers crossed !)

Ok, time to start speculating on something else: 10 or 12 songs? Or how many?

He said 12 back in 2019, I think, but back then he also said the album was nearly finished, so go figure...

I hope it's 12: if it was 10, it'd be only 4 new songs effectively.
