Recommendations
Reviews
-
A musically furious jangle pop Post-Hardcore album w/ brilliant brisk guitar riffs, ridiculously dramatic & melancholic lyrics all bursting w/ raw energy, harmonic invention & whimsey. It's eerie, beautiful & the Smiths' most consistent effort w/ outstanding muscular production by Stephen Street. There isn't a true dud on it.
What the Smiths were all about - in excelsis. -
