Johnny Marr isn't just getting dragged into feuds with Morrissey, he's also getting ready to release his new album The Age Of Everything . He's shared " Spin " and " Ophelia ," and now he's back with "It's Time," which is thankfully not an Imagine Dragons cover.
"'It's Time' is my way of singing about some worldly issues but finding defiance, in idealism," Marr explains. "I wanted a lyric that matched the exuberance of the music but is actually about resisting cynicism and corruption: 'Everybody ain't making it, change the weather and breaking it. Mobilize to know the truth. Open eyes to know the truth.' I guess it's about the assholes with dodgy views."
Hmm... interesting. I wonder if he's referring to a specific asshole with dodgy views, but I won't speculate. What's important is that this track's got a real good riff. Watch the video below.
The Age Of Everything is out 10/2 on New Voodoo Limited/BMG.
