THE SMYTHS present MEAT IS MURDER at 40 + More.7pm, Saturday 6th December 2025, La Belle Angele, Edinburgh.
Sell-out Shows for now 15 years plus we are very pleased to announce the return of The Smyths to La Belle Angele, Edinburgh.
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, it was 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 it’s musical might to a muscular new sound (whilst still maintaining it’s ability to produce heart-breaking beautiful songs).
The Smyths present “Meat is Murder “a show that will celebrate the album alongside a full collection of classic hits and more from The Smiths.
“Having had the very good fortune to have worked up close and personal with THE SMITHS, I can vouch that THE SMYTHS are the most excellent "tribute" to the Smiths' music and legacy” - Stephen Street, legendary music producer of The Smiths.
“To call them a tribute band is an insult...I closed my eyes and it was 1985” - Jeremy Vine, Broadcaster
