I like Morrisseys solo recordings more but The Smiths was a great band. Especially the songs How Soon Is Now?, This Charming Man and Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now.

The Smiths were one of those bands that typify all that is English.
From The Kinks to the Jam, then through The Smiths and up to present day with The Arctic Monkeys. Great lyrically and very British.

Interesting to see your from Finland, you should post an Intro (if you haven't already) in the 'Introduction' section of 'The Lounge'.

Anyway, welcome to MusicBanter.

I know The Smiths was an important band to the English. I've been reading this book about British popular culture after World War 2 and The Smiths comes up in the text quite often saying their music told about the longing of the earlier decades of the 20th century. I've also been listening to The Kinks and Arctic Monkeys. Thanks for welcoming me.
