[QUOTE="Redacted, post: 1987453482, member: 30701"] Yes, he was shackled to the jingle jangle sound, according to him. This is his 4th solo album, Boomslang came out almost 20 years ago, the Smiths broke up 35 years ago and he is saying that it is just now that he can play what he wants. (yet his live setlist is Smiths heavy) I really don't understand his attitude or the things he says. I really think these interviews are getting more bizarre and in all seriousness, I am wondering about his mental health. The interview for the shoes was quite strange. I don't know why he can't just appreciate where he came from and what he created there, even if it didn't work out in the end. So many people love the Smiths and it just seems self destructive to keep criticizing them and what he contributed there. Plenty of bands break up - or even worse, have tragedies, like Ian Curtis and the members go on, either together or apart and do not complain about it this much. [/QUOTE]
