The Smiths were a British rock and alternative group formed in Manchester in 1982. Active throughout the mid-1980s until their dissolution in 1987, the band became influential figures in the post-punk and new wave scene. Operating within the indie rock sphere, they helped shape the sound of 1980s alternative music while drawing connections to the emerging Manchester music movement. The group's output spanning rock, synthpop, and jangle pop elements positioned them as notable contributors to British indie and alternative rock during their five-year run.
