Get the The Smiths Trick mug.The tenth greatest band of all time after Radiohead, Modest Mouse, Björk, The Flaming Lips, Pink Floyd, Beck, The Pixes, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Sonic Youth. A very influential band for pop-rock bands.
The Smiths were a great band, and Morrissey has a great solo career too. Not as great, but still good.
