The follow-up to Morrissey's Ringleader Of The Tormentors has been slated for a February 23rd release date next year, reports fansite True To You.

Moz's tenth solo album is called Years Of Refusal and was originally intended to reach shelves in September but was postponed due to record company wranglings.

The Jerry Finn-produced effort will be preceded by a single, 'I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris', featuring a vocal contribution from Chrissie Hynde on the flip, 'Shame Is The Name'. And rounding off the collection is another new track in the shape of 'Because Of My Poor Education'.

Are you excited yet? Taylor Parkes isn't.
