I recently went out and bought the album Kill uncle, one of the few albims missing from my collection. It was without doubt the worst album he has ever done.

It's not the worst, the worst is the last album. Didn't even buy it, didn't want to be depressed. He's talking about whispering in enemy's ears about to kill them, looking more and more like a homocidal homosexual predator. I don't like it. He was good with the Smiths but lately he has gone insane. He's no longer the 'genius' he once was, but was he ever really? Was it not because of the English press, the same kind that offers lavish praish on a band every two years, it's a even year so it's got to be The Strokes. Those bastards, they're not as good as the Smiths! Goddamnyou! Or not is it because the music we grew up on was so terribly bad. Anything considered 'classic' from the eighties needs to be strangled, bloodied and shot. We have proven to be the most ignorant of all that is cultural in these times because we have followed a callous and undeserving leader who claims no movies from the past 33 years have been any good, who frothers and lathers with b&w pictures of Tarzan from 1933. Have we gone insane?! The reason Morrissey can't make a good album is because no one with talent would ever work with someone like him again! Johnny Marr was the genius of the last century, and he was truly demoralized by Morrissey. The Smiths were about Johnny Marr, not that flower waving Morrissey. It was Morrissey that was riding on the coattails, and it was Morrissey that should have received 10%

I agree. It's never grown on me. His previous work seemed so effortless in style and manner, but I (not saying anyone else does) get the sense that with this album he was sat on his settee desperately trying to find words that rhymed with 'vulgar.' Too forced, too contrived compared to his earlier stuff.
