In my opinion, it was his first great studio album. Viva Hate has a few duds, and Kill Uncle has a few more.
Also, You're The One for Me is one of the best songs on the album. It's a song you either love or hate, with no in between.
Re: In this post-"World Peace is All of Our Business" climate, We All Owe "Malajusted" an Apology.
I re-listened to Maladjusted in light of this thread and I don't owe it an apology - it's as hit and miss as it's always been.
The two are not close, imo.
Re: What, if anything, Would youchange about the new album?
Nothing, although I think some of the songs (Drag the River, Forgive Someone, Julie in the Weeds, Art Hounds) are better than their b-side status suggests.
Re: Killjoy, spoilers, rampant speculation, beware, use caution. Which track on the album is weakes

Re:
Am I supposed to get mad at Morrissey and stop buying his albums?
It wasn't fun having the show I was going to postponed three months and then having it cancelled as I'm driving there. But there's not much I can do about it. People get sick.
Re: Article: Tonight's Flint, MI show cancelled; Minneapolis, Chicago postponed (upda
Welp, I guess I lucked out. The worst that happened to me was being on the road 30 minutes before Ticket Master called.
It's hard to rank The Smiths albums. Without saying it's their "worst", the self titled debut album is a little too polished for my tastes on some songs, namely when comparing "Hand In Glove" and "Still Ill" to their Hatful recordings.
1. Irish Blood, English Heart
2. Black Cloud
3. Mama Lay Softly On The Riverbed
4. The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get
5. In The Future When All's Well
6. Alma Matters
7. The First Of The Gang To Die
8. Reader Meet Author
9. Suedehead
10. I'm Throwing My Arms Around Paris
11. That's How...
