67. Meat is Murder - The Smiths
Surprised? Now of course I piss on The Smiths all the time. Why? Well lets see. 1. Morrissey is a douche. 2. I hate their fans. 3. Queen is Dead is overrated and boring. 4. Morrissey is a douche. 5. Johnny Marr now plays for my least favorite band in the world. But I love this album. That doesn't make me a Smiths fan, I'm not. I could do without their other albums entirely, this album works for me because they spreaded their wings a little, they experiement with many styles, and it all appeals to me a lot more than what they usually dish out, it doesn't sound like The Smiths
that much, go figure. Morrisseys lyrics with his "I'm so painfully shy and lonely" BS, lame pseudo intellectualism, ironic humor and moral imperialist propagonda (the awful title track for example) still grates the f*ck out of me. But the music here makes up for that, Johnny Marr really kicks ass on this album, and the rhythm section, heck even Morrisseys vocals are good here. Just don't make me listen to anything else by this band,
please.
Favorite tracks: The Headmaster Ritual, I Want the One I Can't Have, That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore, How Soon is Now?, Barbarism Begins At Home.
