What is The Smiths?
1.
Best. Band. EVER. 'Nuff said?
The Smiths 0wnz0rz j00.
2.
A band with a reputation for being whiny and dull, but from an objective viewpoint:
1. At least Morrissey meant it, Coldplay/Travis etc. sure as hell don't.
2. At least they had a wry sense of humour, they *knew* they were moping, the joke was on them
3. They were still quite, quite brilliant.
Morrissey just isn't as good solo as he was with Marr in the Smiths

One of the best things to have come out of Thatcher's Britian.
"what difference does it make".

perhaps the greatest band that ever lived. their reign over indie rock only lasted a bit over four years during the 80's but they were amazing, none the less. with their flamboyant, yet oddly dark, lead singer Morrissey (properly named Steven Patrick Morrissey)and they're other very talented musicians; including the notorious guitarist Johnny Marr, bassist Andy Rourke, and drummer Mike Joyce. they're music is likely to appeal to ANYONE, especially those who appreciate good lyrics.
the smiths beat the beatles in a recent poll of greatest british band (true statement).

The Smiths were quite simply the best band ever, in just the short time they were with us they changed the music scene forever. No-one can even come close to comparing to Morrissey's lyrics. The guy is a genius!
Also his solo career is still brilliant, some people say that he has declined but his songs are still better than anyone else's.......end of!
