The undead are Smiths fans in John Ajvide Lindqvist book "Harbour"

Harbour by John Ajvide Lindqvist – review
Jenny Turner isn't entirely surprised to find that the undead are Smiths fans
Excerpt:
...As before, though, Lindqvist is terribly good at anchoring the creeping dread with small found objects, unlikely and yet totemic – a cartoon bear, a flapping sign, Madonna hair and Frankie T-shirts. "It doesn't go away. Nothing goes away." The 1980s are suddenly back, as the saying goes, with a vengeance: when at last we get to see them head on, the evil demons turn out to be Smiths fans, bespectacled and bequiffed and talking entirely in Morrissey lyrics. "Does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the body?"; "I am human and I need to be loved,"; "Stop me if you think you've heard this one before." I still can't decide if this works or not – I think on balance it probably doesn't. But it's so strange, so mad, so weirdly inspirational, I can't bring myself to wish that Lindqvist had cut it out.

Debrett's The Guide for Modern Gentleman mentions Morrissey in crombie coat
Posted by Librarian On Fire in the forums:
Morrissey in a crombie, in Debrett's
In Debrett's Guide For the Modern Gentleman (2009 edition) there is a section devoted to which coat to wear and who favours which coat. Under the entry for Crombie Morrissey's name appears along with the line "a favoured English look". I like what the modern Morrissey wears, and I'm a sucker for reading books on etiquette and manners for a modern gentleman. Liam Gallagher appears under the entry for parka.
