Obviously the queen is dead if you say otherwise you are a contrarian

i wanna say none but i kinda have sympathy for u and i wanna give u a tip. stop listening to them faggots b

I only had Strangeways when I first discovered the Smiths so, in a cruel twist of fate, I ended up connecting primarily to the quintessential contrarian Smiths album.

Hatful of Hollow

The Queen Is Dead is the best IMO, although I do think you could make a convincing case for any of their albums (yes including Louder Than Bombs)

I've listened to all of them and the only one I kinda liked was Strangeways

this

Thats a compilation not an actual studio album.
But yeah it had the best songz

Just because it's an assembly of songs from various recording sessions what makes it any less legitimate than the other Smiths records?
Most albums are a compilation of tracks that fit well together; unless a band is going in with a strict concept, which The Smiths obviously weren't

Straneways was initially my favourite but I have become increasingly attracted to the rawness of their s/t. I'm a big fan of bands like Close Lobsters and The Chameleons, and that album is the most rooted in jangle pop and post-punk.
