The Smiths Is Dead is a tribute album to the 1980s English alternative rock band the Smiths, released in 1996 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of 1986's The Queen Is Dead, featuring the same tracks in the same running order. It was compiled by the French cultural magazine Les Inrockuptibles. The album was released at the height of the Britpop era and contained covers by popular Britpop acts such as Supergrass, the Divine Comedy and the Boo Radleys.
