The Smiths - Meat Is Murder CD/LP

With their second proper album "Meat Is Murder", The Smiths began to branch out and diversify, while refining the jangling guitar pop of their debut.

The Headmaster Ritual and I Want The One I Can't Have are fine elaborations of the formula they laid out on the debut, while Rusholme Ruffians is an infectious stab at rockabilly. Such was their creative thrust at this point; they were seen as the most important British band since Joy Division.

Above all though, there was no other British group making music quite like this in 1985.
