The former Smiths singer recently announced a deal with Sire Records and although it was believed he would release his much-delayed album, Bonfire of Teenagers, on the new label, the tracklisting appears to be for a completely new record.
The 12 song titles - shared on his Instagram account - does not include Rebels Without Applause, the one single released from Bonfire Of Teenagers in 2022.
The song list includes The Monsters Of Pig Alley, Headache, Make-Up Is A Lie, The Night Pop Dropped, You're Right It's Time, Kerching Kerching, Zoom Zoom The Little Boy, Lester Bangs, Boulevard, Many Icebergs Ago, Amazona and Notre-Dame.
Morrissey's career has faced difficulties in recent years.
BMG cut ties with him in November 2020 - a decision the veteran British singer said was linked to the record label's "new plans for diversity".Â
He completed his 14th solo album, Bonfire of Teenagers, in 2021, with its title track referencing the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.
Although initially due for release under Capitol Records in February 2023, Morrissey said at the end of 2022 he had "voluntarily" parted ways with both the label and his management, and claimed the record was being withheld.
Last year, he revealed he had finished a second new album, originally titled Without Music the World Dies, and now known as You're Right, It's Time, which he has been unable to release.
Morrissey reportedly recorded the album in 2023 in France with producer Joe Chiccarelli.
