So, The Smiths have won ‘The Proper Music Blog’s’ ‘Greatest Manchester Band’ poll with 44% of the votes, after staving off challenges from The Stone Roses and Oasis.
Undoubtedly one of the most important bands in music history, The Smiths were only together for approximately five years, during which time they released 4 studio albums and 18 singles. With the brilliantly melodic, haunting riffs of Marr and the brutally honest, witty lyrics of Morrissey, it’s no surprise that the band achieved the level of success they did.
