I was in doubt whether to give this album a 4/5 or a 5/5, since there is obviously some weaker tracks on here. The sheer musicality and the memories this brings back, however, push it towards a 5/5 for me.

Bangers all round and such a great variety in styles. Does not feel long at all.
Favourite tracks: London Calling, Spanish Bombs, The Guns of Brixton, The Card Cheat, Train in Vain

3.5 / 5 rounded up

This was my first introduction to The Smiths and also my first time revisiting since. It has really grown on me and I don’t hate it as much anymore as those years ago, but still my least favourite The Smiths album.
The 5 track run from What She Said to Barbarism Begins at home was awesome, just a shame that it had to be followed by the title track.

This is just too long. Definitely preferred The Love Below over Speakerboxxx. Favourites: The Rooster, Church, Reset // Love Hater, Spread, Prototype, Hey Ya!, Roses

In UteroNirvana

Rated 8/10

I had to get used to the vocal delivery on this album but started to enjoy it more throughout. Might appreciate it more on consecutive listens.

I liked The Ox and My Generation. Other than that not much special. Never really been into The Who
