For fans of classic alternative, here is a new 2 disc compilation of seminal English band the Smiths.  Seemingly one of the more comprehensive collections available, this was brought to us all by one-time group THESMiTHS.

Deluxe 2 CD version, with disc 2 containing choice B sides, live cuts, and rarities. 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 musical depth that was complex, emotional and often controversial-at the same time, it rang with The Smiths’ unique twist on timeless melodic pop sensibilities. On Rhino’s new compilation, the group’s biggest hits and most important tracks are represented.
