 | XO [Read More ...]
Japanese version featuring a bonus track: "Miss Misery". |
 | The Queen Is Dead [Read More ...]
Description: This is the value of working at cross-purposes: The Smiths were Morrissey's excuse to undulate his wry, disaffected lyrics, and Johnny Marr's vehicle for his sharp, chiming, pop songs. Their favorite kind of compromise made them essentially a singles band, and The Queen Is Dead h... |
 | The Smiths [Read More ...]
Description: With their debut album, the Smiths launched an all-too-brief, but profound career that, largely owing to their outspoken lead singer, would be enshrouded in controversy and cultlike devotion. Lyrically, Steven Patrick Morrissey waxed haute poetic about homosexuality ("Hand in Glo... |
 | Either/Or [Read More ...]
Description: Blessed with the voice of a wispy angel, Elliott Smith creates sad little pop songs, which, like the work of Nick Drake (to whom he's been compared) threaten to disappear into the night air. Several of the tracks here were featured in Gus Van Zant's movie Good Will Hunting, and t... |
 | Louder Than Bombs [Read More ...]
Description: This 1987 collection of Smiths album tracks, B-sides, and singles (and roughly half of Hatful of Hollow) is a worthy essential Smiths due to its scope and size. Twenty-four tracks in all, it includes hits such as the irresistible and bouncy "Ask," the Smiths prototype "Heaven Kno... |
 | Meat Is Murder [Read More ...]
Description: Singer Morrissey's brittle wit and guitarist Johnny Marr's incisive guitar helped make the Smiths create both an entranced cult following and pop music of the highest order. The U.S. edition of the band's second album includes the bonus single "How Soon Is Now?" and while it's a ... |
 | Horses [Read More ...]
Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing includes one bonus track. BMG. 2008. |
 | New Moon [Read More ...]
Description: Disc One: 01. Angel In The Snow From the Jan/Feb 1995 sessions at Leslie Uppinghouse's home studio that yielded much of the S/T record. Elliott's mix appeared on a CD that came with Mike McGonigal's magazine, Yeti: Volume I. 02. Talking to Mary From the 1995 sessions at Lesli... |
 | Strangeways, Here We Come [Read More ...]
Review: A worthy final album of a great, great band....:This is The Smiths's swansong (barring any reunion album, which, sadly, is probably not going to happen), and it generally gets mixed reviews from Smiths fans. I think it's a near masterpiece. It's not as vibrant as other Smiths' a... |
 | One Moment More [Read More ...]
Description: While the hype machine forever proclaims this or that new artist to be "unique," "original," or "a fresh new voice," most of the time what you hear is more of the same old, same old. Thus, it is a rare joy to hear a newcomer that actually qualifies as all of the above. Mindy Smit... |
 | Figure 8 [Read More ...]
Japanese edition of the indie rock singer/songwriter's 2000 release with two exclusive bonus tracks 'Because' & 'Figure 8'. 18 tracks in all including the single 'Son Of Sam'. Digipak. |
 | Elliott Smith [Read More ...]
Description: Recorded mildly better than his debut (Roman Candle on Cavity Search), the self-titled second solo album is one of the most understated and incredible albums to emerge from the indie-rock scene in the 1990s. With his nimble picking fingers behind him, Smith writes sad, little son... |
 | Easter [Read More ...]
Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 2007. |
 | Hatful of Hollow [Read More ...]
Description: The Smiths tend to be thought of as a band one grows out of--music you listened to as a depressed adolescent and then abandoned when you overcame it all. Such a notion denies them their place in the rock pantheon, not only as an inspiration to countless indie-rock outfits but als... |
 | From a Basement on the Hill [Read More ...]
Description: Elliott Smith has been a patron saint of the indie scene since his days helming Portland heroes Heatmiser. As a solo artist, his fondness for Beatlesque melody led to some of the most beautifully orchestrated pop of the last decade. This is his final recording, which found him re... |
 | Singles Box (7-inch Singles) [Read More ...]
Description: Extremely limited 2008 clamshell box containing the first 10 UK-issued seven inch vinyl singles in their original picture sleeves. The box also contains two additional singles which are exclusive to this box set: the projected fourth single - "Still Ill" (which was pressed as DJ ... |
 | Roman Candle [Read More ...]
Description: A member of the band Heatmiser, Elliot Smith recorded home demos on any equipment he could get his hands on. His first "solo" album is a cheap four-track home recording that hints at the melodic possibilities Smith would explore in greater detail on subsequent releases. The title... |
 | The Sound Of The Smiths: The Very Best Of The Smiths [Read More ...]
Description: The Smiths formed in Manchester in 1982 and quickly rose to become the quintessential British indie rock band of their day. Powered by the collaboration between lead singer and lyricist Morrissey and lead guitarist and co-songwriter Johnny Marr, their sound had a literary and mus... |
 | Good Will Hunting: Music From The Miramax Motion Picture [Read More ...]
Description: Movie soundtracks are chancy in that the music is often geared to specific parts of the film that are meant to evoke concurrent emotions; many don't hold up apart from their cinematic context. The trend of the past few years has been to gratuitously traipse down memory lane, with... |
