I think its the recording. I've seen that band live and they are great. He sounds so much like Morrissey, he captures the whole audience. He even gets the infamous huggers rushing the stage.
@DJDanielPeterson Agreed. One has to take the Smiths in doses as Morrissey was waaaaaaaay whinier back then. Great catalogue of hits, don't get me wrong. Pound for pound though, he's put out better tunes with his solo work (granted he's also put out more singles as well).
@DJDanielPeterson My final point was: He is rich and has hundreds of thousands of people that adore him, he cant emote the way he did when he wrote " Reel around the fountain" Well i wonder" and "Half a person" This confirms he was calling it as he saw it then. As bummed out as i am that he sucks now, I still feel a huge connection to his previous work. Morrisey/Marr was as good as it gets,... better.
@DJDanielPeterson. Viva hate was good,and its follow up was just ok.When I hear his stuff now Its way more akin to a sing along track and not only do the melodies fall way short but the lyrics are dumbed way down.I really dug the Smiths (saw them six times) and was borderline fanatical. I dont dig strangeways either, Its too produced.I have pondered the mans creative slide for many years and its my opinion that the songs written by Marr were the catalyst for his genius: And hes rich now.

I'm a huge moz and smiths fan and I think this tribute band really does both great justice. Good job guys.
