Morrissey is featured in this months Word magazine, which includes a half-page photo of him holding up a sign saying 'WE HATE IAMS'. Not sure if it's a new picture; he's sat on a window ledge, with three dogs.
The short transcript is -

".....and here are my pedigree chums"

In the grand tradtion of Meat Is Murder, Morrissey launches a typically swingeing attack, this time on pet food manufacturer IMAS. Pressure group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals claim to have found cruel conditions in IAMS' laboratories, and so Morrissey reprises his role as the Salford St Francis of Assisi. In related news, it emerges that Morrissey's first album in seven years will not be called 'Irish Blood, English Heart' after all, but will go under the rather Uncle Monty-ish title 'You Are The Quarry' instead. Songs are said to include 'I Have Forgiven Jesus', 'My Life Is A Series Of People Saying Goodbye' and the undeniably Morrissonian 'How Can Anybody Possibly Know How I Feel?'. Oh how we've missed him. One hopes that the wilder rumours - that the record will also feature backing vocals by Courtney Love, Billy Idol and Sir Elton John - are unfounded.
