Maybe, can anyone name any other members other than Morrissey? Every album sounds like a Smiths album. Blazing new trails of staring down at our feet. Cuck music

>>72951687
No, not even close

>>72951860
>People don't know who Johnny Marr is
>People don't know who Andy Rourke is
Go back to r/hiphopheads you faggot

>>72951687
No, they are just different. Both have there pluses and minuses.

No, they lack diversity compared to the fab.

>Morrissey is a better singer than Lennon and McCartney
>Marr is a better guitarist than Harrison
>Rourke is a better bassist than McCartney
>Joyce is a better drummer than Ringo
>Morrissey and Marr are better songwriters than Lennon and McCartney

>>72951986
Seriously? That's the most concrete inarguable statement of the post.

its really a matter of preference. one is newer and more hip though

>>72952009
for >>72951986

maybe technically, but you cant really compare them one on one desu.

>>72951687
Musically? Yes.

Backing you up in a fist-fight? Nah.

>>72951955
lol no

The actual answer is no. This means the /mu/-approved answer is yes.

>>72952051
k thanks

>>72951955
>Morrissey and Marr are better songwriters than Lennon and McCartney
Just no. The Smith is one of the greatest bands ever though.

>>72951687
Nope

>>72952058
No problem buddy

Patrician here.
Correct answer is yes they are.

yes obviously

>>72951955
>Yet they still manage to not make better music than the beatles

Yes.

>>72951860
Listening to The Smiths only for Morrissey is just slightly less dumb than listening to them only for Marr.

So much fucking Reddit in here

>>72951687
Yes, with no doubts

>>72951687
Of course

>>72951687
Probably, the Beatles kinda suck peenor

>>72952044
I actually feel like Andy Rourke is like one of those really calm dudes, but when shit goes down he already has his shirt off and is ready to go

>>72951860
I listen to the Smiths because Joyce and Rourke together are the best rthythm section of the 1980s.
