The Smiths ha confirmado el lanzamiento de una reedición de su obra maestra lanzado en junio de 1986 «The Queen is Dead», el cual verá la luz este proximo 20 de octubre y correrá por cuenta de Warner Bros records. El disco aparte de contar con los tracks remasterizados contará con la primera toma de la épica «There is a Light That Never Goes Out» y varios lados B y demos. También vendrá un álbum en vivo inédito grabado en Boston el 5 de agosto de 1986 y un DVD a cargo de Derek Jarman, que es lo que hace de esta reedición atractiva tanto para los fanáticos como para los fieles coleccionistas de grandes discos.
