    Morrissey Confirms New Album, Tour Dates

    Morrissey has finally set a release date for his new solo album, Years of Refusal. Due out February 16 in the UK (a domestic release is TBD), the Decca/Polydor release features the single "I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris." That jam drops on February 9, complete with two B-sides: "Because of My Poor Education" and "Shame Is the Name," the latter of which features the guest vocals of the Pretenders' Chrissie Hynde.

    In other Moz-y news, the former Smiths frontman will play three UK shows in March, including an Apollo gig that happens on the same day as his 50th birthday.

    The details:
    5/11 London, England - Royal Albert Hall
    5/22 Manchester, England - Apollo
    5/23 Manchester, England - Apollo
