Look I can tell the difference between Meat is Murder from their other work. Hell the reason Meat is Murder is my favorite Smiths album is mainly because its the one that sounds least like a Smiths album.
But its not that great of a departure, not only when compared to The Beatles but many other artists I could name drop. Take out Meat is Murder and you had a band that was very consistant and rarely left their comfort zone.

Of course if you look at I Want To Hold Your Hand and then Helter Skelter it's a very radical departure but how many bands changed the way the Beatles did?

Theres a lot of versatile artists out there.

Not many so as I said before it's not a fair comparison. No one compares to the Beatles so people need to stop trying to compare to them.

Dude, they're going to be compared. They're competing against each other on a poll YOU made.
