The other brilliant album of The Smiths Very Happy
Best track (and one of the best of the 80s): Barbarism Begins at Home.

No.

Great album, probably their best sounding actually. I don't love it as much as The Queen Is Dead because I feel the songs are overall stronger on the latter, but it's a brilliant record anyway. What a band they were.

The Smiths had a perfect catalog....I wouldn't say anything was 'their worst'.

A somewhat weaker offering from The Smiths than usual, but still good.

70/100
