Strangeways, Here We Come
The SmithsMMMMIIIIIIIIDDDD In all honesty, I didn't give it much of a chance. I listened in the background while reading, will give another listen. Overall I liked the use of change in voice as a musical device like on the first song in the line "A rush and a push of the land", A Rush is sung from the throat. The melody in the first song is quite catchy as well but the song seems like a lull that leads to a climax that is quite tame or boring even. Will probably be returning though to "Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Love Me". The title alone appeals to me and it's the perfect addition to my LMB playlist just off themes alone. What else could you ask for in a heartbreak/sadboy song. Ideal lie in bed and stare at the ceiling song. 5/10 - Not bad by any means but not my taste. Listens as quite dated; either I've been spoiled by modern music being so dynamic or it just doesn't have what I'm looking for.
