“The Queen Is Dead was epic to make and epic to live.” - Johnny Marr 

Last month we announced the re-issue of The Smiths great album The Queen Is Dead, out on October 20 and available to pre-order here. 

Today we are thrilled to give you a further glimpse into the bands early recording sessions with this previously unreleased demo of "I Know It's Over" premiered exclusively in Australia on ILYOS. 

The bulk of the original album was recorded in the winter of 1985 at Jacob Studios in Farnham, under the working title 'Margaret on the Guillotine', written by Morrissey and Johnny Marr.

Fans of The Smiths can read more about the exciting project which includes more previously unreleased tracks, demos and b-sides from one of the most influential Britsh bands of all time, here.
