Don't like them.

Worth remembering in 1987 that The Cure was doing moodiness way better and that overseas The Replacements were doing the jangly power pop thing way better. Some nice guitar tones, that's about it.

1/5 - I dislike the vocals so much I couldn't listen to more than 1 song. Fuck Morrissey.

I don’t get the Smiths. Pretentious pseudo rock with a touch of disco ? And Morrissey besides being an idiot isn’t a good singer. 1 star

normol

Boring. Not even some fun guitar work. He's such a misery guts

would give 0 stars if i could

The only positive thing about this album is that it means that we're almost over listening to Morrisey.

Massive amounts of weed and shrooms seem the likely reason the outlandish lyrics permeate this entirely bizarre album. An entire song about "Girlfriend in a coma," feels like it was written by either an immature teenager or generative AI. A single listen to all songs will suffice for the rest of my life.

Didn't hate it as much as the other one

Hate morrisey

Boring

\"Oh FUCK! Not this shit again!\" Was my thought when I saw ANOTHER album by the Smiths pop up today. Song number 5 is called \"Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before\", so I did. I award this 1 spoiled, unfinished cake. 🥮

Nothing really stood out to me.

Never really got The Smiths, and the cod-reggae opener didn't help. Chuck in the 'lyrics' to Paint and I wonder why anyone ever lauded Morrissey's way with words. Those words clearly got away from him. Apparently both Morrissey and Marr claim this is their best album, which probably tells me all I need to know about this.

I didn't want to listen to this really

Pretty terrible it was a struggle to make it through

Not for me

The lead singer has such an unusual voice that I just can't get over. I've never liked Smith's songs I've heard before and this album, although interesting, was no exception

Shoot me now.

The man who’s singing sounds like a chicken. There is no future for this band.

não terminei, não sei como alguém pode gostar

Chiaaant

Not my thing at all.

Do not like The Smiths and this hasn’t converted me. *

Still not my thing, sorry :(

Uninteressant.

I've never been a huge fan of The Smiths. This album didn't excite me, but it was easy listening for work. I wouldn't seek it out, but I didn't hate it.

Great album

Smiths

It's good!
