How come Marr had such a lacklustre solo career compared to Morrissey? He was supposed to be the "musical genius" of the two.
>>
Marr didn't care that much about making songs or albums he just wanted to play guitar. Morrissey has a couple of decent solo albums but at least Marr isn't a cornholing faggot who likely molested little boys.

>>131273447
He's never actually had talent. He was always a coattail rider on Moz's greatness.

qrd?
>>
The only talent in the music industry is the voice
That is why you always see all these thots who cannot write a song remain huge in solo careers
Marr did not have the voice and no songwriting talent can save that
>>
Moz made this guy
>>
>>131273447
Because pop music favors lyrics/singing and he's primarily a guitar player.
>>

>was a member of the the from 88 to 94

his work with the the blows away anything morrissey ever did as a solo artist
>>
>>131273447
>>131273467
Actually I should have worded it as "post-Smiths career", not "solo career". My bad

I get that he's not that much of a singer songwriter type, but his best work in like 3 decades was probably that Modest Mouse album and some stuff with The The, pretty scarce.
Morrissey did alright with his solo career.
>>
>>131273589
Fuckin this
I love Marr's guitar stuff in Electronic
Its hard to pick out which parts are my favorite but I think of the little riffs in 'How Long' 'Idiot Country' and 'Make It Happen' a lot, to name a few.
>>
Musicians are like tools. Only the singer matters. Morrissey use Marr like a tool, he told him what kind of sound he wanted and Marr obeyed. Marr is a talented guitarist but he's nothing without his master Mozza ordering him around
>>
In general I think Marr just wants to be a 'nice bloke' in a band. He's friends with a hundred famous musicians and has played alongside many of them. Moz, on the other hand, is friends with almost no one but he crucially possesses the ego and madness of creative impulse. So, while they were together, Marr could write all these great songs, but without such a willful personality beside him he lacks the catalyst. This is essentially why every huge band has two guys who fucking hate each other, one or both of them needs to be an egomaniac for them to get big in the first place.

Morrissey has 1) better songs and b) the voice and iii) the lyrics. Also Marr is a huge wokester now so fuck him despite making a great deal of beautiful music.
>>
>>131273589
You're genuinely delusional. There's no mark of his on any of The The's music during his duration.

>Playing like Hank Marvin in an indie rock band
He was a one-trick pony

Anyone can play guitar like Marr but nobody can replace Morrissey's lyrics and cult of personality

>Anyone can play guitar like Marr
I'm not sure about that, anyway the trick is the combination of his weird and obnoxious country-pop arrangements and morrissey's vocal lines on top that sound they have nothing to do with each other. Neither could ever replicate that by going solo
>>
>>131273467
what?
>>
>>131273509
depends on the format. rock for example has never been overwhelmingly dependent on technically excellent singing.

Yeah if anything, Electronic proves that synergy matters far more than individual talent in a group.

Harsh but accurate, you see it so many times

Not sure what makes "the voice" but...if you ain't got it, everyone knows it

Damon Albarn vs Graham Coxton is a good example

What are some others?
>>
Both need each other. Morrissey solo stuff sucks.
>>
>>131275345

finding someone with Marr’s compositional skills is much harder than finding an arrogant poet who can’t sing
