April 21st marks Robert Smith's 56th birthday and provides us with the best opportunity to compile a quick playlist of the man's work outside the outfit for which he's mostly known.
The playlist includes tracks from his side projects, his Burton movies songs, his participation in the tribute albums to Paul McCartney and John Martyn and a whole bunch of collaborations with artists such as 65daysofstatic, Crystal Castles, Billy Corgan, Tweaker and more. Makes you wonder how this man can even make Blink-182 sound good...
