08.25.13 | lotsa people seem to think so these days, but idk, i've only heard a couple of songs and it was a
while ago, so no real opinion. |

08.25.13 | I don't think so, but it's all a matter of opinion I guess? |

08.25.13 | no, they are extremely influential and even some of the more obscure supposedly 'avant' post-punkish acts acknowledge their importance today and tomorrow, an artists' commercial breakthrough doesn't determines it's contemporary relevance or nullifies their importance (using the 'overlooked' argument on the other hand). i do think the smiths are a tad overrated because jangle pop came to a prominent decadent slur post-90's, so everything that's left is inherently previous or revivalist twee/jangle in nature. Isnt necessarily a bad thing but there were far better and surprisingly unsuccesful bands like the motifs, feelies, dolly mixture also. jd are like a bluprint. |

SAPoodle
08.25.13 | Only recently gotten into them and I must say I'm really shocked that they're such a well-known and influential group among the more mainstream fans and artists, considering how dark their music was |

09.14.13 | Their 2 albums are undisputed classics. Ian Curtis imo is one of the best lyricists ever... In short, no. They're the Burial equivalent of the 80s. |
tommygun
09.14.13 | best band e'er |

11.17.13 | In terms of a group of outcasts bearing their soul through post punk classics while completing the daily grind Ian Curtis/Joy Division are underrated |
