Everything is multicultural, whether Morrissey likes it or not.

dunno, it was a completely contextless post, what were you on about?

:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: (I don't get it, are we just being a bit racist for no reason?)

Funnily enough with my random sleuthing around Spotify it seems the only other big British band i can find who can compete are the other big cultists, The Cure!

That pitchfork review makes the good point that at the time they weren't that big, they'd grace the top 30 for a week and then drop out. They definitely deserved better than that, they deserved number 1's. Thing is, with the passing of time they have achieved this. The charts all work so...

in fairness - great song, great performance, great bit of 80's flamboyance.

I think it's more the spirit of the thing. Even if you think the Clash's attempts at 'world' music (for serious want of a better phrase) on Sandinista! are hamfisted and embarrassing, at least they were acknowledging that the rest of the world exists; The Smiths kind of turned their back on all...

Neil Kulkarni wrote about it (and also the ganging up against Morrissey) pretty eloquently here, maybe i quoted it earlier in this thread, i can't remember, but it's worth thinking about: Morrissey - Greatest Hits album review, Plan B Magazine 2010 there are moments in Smiths tunes that are...

Does it bother you that Morrissey's 'problematic' nature was evident from day one?

No that's fairly it. I agree its great. Turgid means really good right? I mean, his point is fairly out in the open there.

Sorry, a GREAT read.

A Good Read

Right so, the album. Below is a bit of a ramble I'm afraid, won't be submitting it to 33 and a third this week: It's impossible to like what can broadly be called pop music and not hear some Smiths, either indirectly through some hideously embarrassing rip off merchants, or, and probably more...

I'm sure we'll think of a way of getting the music around if the problem comes up.

Sure we're all gonna be dead some day m8!

I'm not getting all the hate for Vicar in Tutu, are we rockabilly racists on thumped or is it just the lyrics? like the Jam

On my first ever listen. Lads, I like the 80's production, it's great! Mixing is a bit weird though, is there an entire other song going on underneath the title track?
