As the lead singer of , arguably the most important indie band in Britain during the '80s, Morrissey's theatrical crooning and literate, poetic lyrics -- filled with romantic angst, social alienation, and cutting wit -- connected powerfully with a legion of similarly sensitive, disaffected youth. These fans turned into stars in Britain, exerting tremendous pull over much of the country's guitar-based music for many years after their breakup. Even if the group remained underground cult artists in the States, they had a fan base that slowly, steadily grew larger over the years. Indeed, Morrissey launched a solo career with 1988's artful Viva Hate and brought together his love of rockabilly and glam rock on 1991's Kill Uncle and 1992's Your Arsenal, the latter of which was produced by guitarist . By the time of 1994's Vauxhall and I, his American cult had grown to the point where he was regularly reaching the Top 40 of the Billboard 200.
