Morrissey's debut album 'Viva Hate' was originally released in March 1988 just six months after the release of the final Smiths' album. 'Strangeways, Here We Come'. Keeping the core jangling guitar sound of his previous band, Morrissey's first record provided the ultimate platform for his by-then legendary lyrical abilities, resulting in a set of what would become classic Morrissey tracks: 'Suedehead', 'Everyday Is Like Sunday', 'Little Man, What Now?' and the 'Margaret on a Guillotine' to name a few.

'Viva Hate' has now been remastered for the first time (supervised by the original producer Steven Street) and comes with brand new artwork, an introduction by Chrissie Hynde and now includes the rare track 'Treat Me Like A Human Being'. The 'Viva Hate' Special Edition is available on CD in a gatefold digipak, a heavyweight gatefold double LP and download.

Order the Morrissey 'Viva Hate: Special Edition' at Recordstore.co.uk and you could win a presentation frame of the original vinyl test pressing (one of only two ever made) together with the very first artwork run-offs from the factory. The lucky winner will also have the frame personally engraved!

Tonight
??
Like the album it’s taken from, first single “Tonight” is all about the primal and atavistic pull that all good pop music exerts, about how the unadulterated thrill of a great band or gig can sometimes feel like a hotline straight to your heart.

In Bob Stanley’s own words, “’Tonight’ is about the anticipation of going to see your favourite group. For some reason, I imagine this show is at the Forum in Kentish Town. The whole album is about the power of pop, how it affects and shapes your life”.

Produced by Xenomania lynchpin Tim Powell (Girls Aloud, Kylie, Sugababes) and mixed by Richard X, this 7" is limited to 1,000 copies worldwide and comes with an exclusive b-side. Click artwork below to pre-order!
