ReviewsRanked #2 in AP's list of the `Top 99 Of '85-'95' - "...THE QUEEN IS DEAD remains today a passionate carpet-bombing of every stuffy, phony inch of the English earth....Like Tennessee Williams' best drama, it's...about the defense of innocence, about drag queens coming out of the closet only to face a prickly, heartless and heartlessly boring world...", "At the remove of three decades, this album remains as fresh and unconventional as the day the songs were first committed to tape...", Included in Ap's "10 Essential '80s Albums"., Ranked #27 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums", "Johnny Marr’s musical contribution is beautifully documented. The guitar-synth arrangements are thematic, subtly shaded, and often exciting...", 5 Stars-Indispensible-"...The Smiths' Best Album....An Extraordinary Record...", 5 Stars Out of 5-"...One of the Funniest Rock Albums Ever...", Ranked #2 among the `50 Greatest Albums Of The 80s' - "...Neither before nor after have Morrissey and Marr come close to making such an ambitious, consistent, touching and witty album...", Ranked #2 in Cmj's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1986in, Ranked #10 in Nme's List of the `Greatest Albums of All Time.'
