Experience Strangeways, Here We Come, the fourth and final studio album from legendary Manchester band The Smiths. Originally released in 1987, the album brought the extraordinary partnership of Morrissey, Johnny Marr, Andy Rourke and Mike Joyce to a close with one of the most ambitious and musically varied records in their catalogue.
Moving beyond the guitar-driven indie sound of their earlier releases, Strangeways, Here We Come incorporates alternative rock, indie, post-punk and orchestral pop influences. Johnny Marr's increasingly adventurous arrangements provide the backdrop for Morrissey's unmistakable vocals and characteristically witty, melancholic and sharply observational songwriting.
Featuring some of The Smiths' most celebrated songs, including "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me," "I Started Something I Couldn't Finish," "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before" and "Girlfriend in a Coma," the album captures a band continuing to evolve creatively even as they approached their unexpected breakup.
From the dramatic atmosphere of "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me" to the infectious melody of "Girlfriend in a Coma," Strangeways, Here We Come remains an essential part of The Smiths' catalogue and a fitting final studio statement from one of Britain's most influential alternative bands.
