Our Take

Ah, the Smiths. The band that had everyone simultaneously swooning and wallowing in self-pity back in the day. Their final opus, "Strangeways, Here We Come", is a fitting end to their tumultuous journey together.

From the haunting opening track "A Rush and a Push and the Land is Ours" to the melancholic "I Started Something I Couldn't Finish", Morrissey's trademark witticisms and Johnny Marr's jangly guitar riffs are in full force throughout the album. It's like being wrapped in a warm blanket of despair, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

But the real standout on this album is "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me". Morrissey's tortured vocals paired with Marr's ethereal guitar work create a truly haunting atmosphere that will leave you questioning your own existence. It's the kind of song that makes you want to cry in a corner while simultaneously dancing like no one's watching.

Overall, "Strangeways, Here We Come" is a fitting farewell from one of the most influential bands in music history. It may not be the cheeriest listen, but sometimes you need a good cry to remind yourself you're alive. So grab your tissues and give this album a spin. You won't regret it.
