The Smyths: Meat Is Murder 40

Colchester Arts Centre, 23 May 2025


Tribute band

Tickets £21.50.
Doors open 7pm, starts 8pm.
This gig is for a standing audience.

2025 sees the 40th anniversary of The Smiths’ legendary second album “Meat is Murder”.

Arguably the band’s most controversial release (the band considered it as a protest album), not only did it do more than anything in pop culture to encourage a generation to become vegetarians, but it was also the first album to introduce Morrissey’s criticism of the Royal Family.

Coming a year on from the band’s debut, “Meat Is Murder” showed the band moving its musical might to a muscular new sound (whilst still maintaining it’s ability to produce heart-breakingly beautiful songs).

The Smyths present “Meat is Murder “in its entirety alongside Smiths classics and hits.
