“The Queen Is Dead was epic to make and epic to live.” - Johnny Marr

Highly thought of as The Smiths' finest album The Queen Is Dead, has been remastered and expanded ahead of its re-release on October 20th.

Debuted in the summer of 1986, its impact on the generation and those that followed was as vast as it was wide. Even inspiring a whole host of normcores and other effortlessly stylish bands.

The album will be released as a deluxe 3CD and 1 DVD box set featuring the 2017 master of the album, additional recordings featuring demos, b-sides and alternative versions, the ‘Live In Boston’ album recorded at the Great Woods Center For The Performing Arts on 5th August 1986, and a DVD featuring the 2017 master of album.
