This quite famous and very influential album is far from being a great work in my opinion. Nothing to do if you compare this with "Queen is dead" or "The Smiths". It sounds artificial and there are only a couple of good tunes. Maybe this is their worst lp.
This is certainly one of the most important albums of the 20th century. So beautiful in every way. Morrissey proves himself as one of the few musicians of the otherwise flamboyantly glamourous era, to be much deeper than what was considered mainstream at the time. He showcases male vulnerability, isolation, love, rejection and beauty like no other.
This album is superb! I am proud to own this CD, the lyrics are fantastic and moving. If your a Morrissey/Smiths fan you must own this CD:)If you like The Cure you will enjoy The Smiths.
as the vegetarian i am, i truely love the way "the smiths" did the song meat is murder. i decided to buy this album becaue it was missing on my morrissey/smiths collection. As a huge fanatic of morrrissey, i felt i just had to have this album since i was missing it. There is nothing bad about this album.
