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 .

Johnny Marr – “It’s Time”

Johnny Marr is not only facing backlash from Morrissey but is also gearing up for the release of his new album, The Age Of Everything. He has already shared tracks Spin and Ophelia, and now he has unveiled a fresh single titled It's Time. Unlike any Imagine Dragons cover, It's Time serves as a commentary on pressing social issues, while simultaneously exuding defiance through its idealistic lyrics.

Marr shared, "It's my way of singing about worldly issues but finding defiance, in idealism." The song conveys a message of resisting cynicism and corruption with lines such as "Everybody ain't making it, change the weather and breaking it. Mobilize to know the truth. Open eyes to know the truth." Marr's focus seems to be on those with questionable viewpoints.

Regardless of the specific individual he means, the intent is clear. The newly released track boasts an impressive riff, as highlighted in the accompanying video. The Age Of Everything album is set to drop on October 2nd via New Voodoo Limited/BMG.
