General discussion about The Cure
They still haven't found it yet.
Best album
Pornography is their best album, hands down. It balances the best moments of the Cure's sonic experimentation with some of Robert's greatest vocal contributions, while still not feeling overly bloated like later Cure releases. One Hundred Years and A Strange Day are the best Cure songs.
Prove me wrong.

Get real losers
Disintegration, HotD, and 3IB are good albums but where he shines are the singles. Call me a pleb if you want, but no one can write a pop tune like him.
Bauhaus > Cure
>>61863982
I agree
>>61863982
I'd take one of their single comps over any of their LPs
>>61863801
No, Ive been hearing about them for over a decade
Shut the fuck up, they're not that good.
They don't warrant this much discussion Jesus christ

Favorite band ever, Disintegration being my favorite album and the title track being my favorite song of them, that song is so underrated, being a caribbean fag is suffering cause you know you're never seeing them live, going to a tribute concert of them next thursday, i hope i don't cringe more than i expect.

What is so good about Disintegration? I find it to be very boring
>>61864630
The album or the single? either way, that haunting mood, those lyrics, Robert Smith singing, it all fits into creating a dark atmosphere yet beautiful thing.
i love 'em!! they are easily one of the best band of all time without a doubt.

Butthurt much? They're great and iconic.
>>61864851
The album i never really got in to it
>>61863860
A strange day is probably one of my favorite songs,*that guitar riff* I don't know why The Hanging Garden was chose as the single over it. But what ever.
>>61865060
I guess it's just a matter of taste, for me i can't see how people prefer Pornography over Disintegration.
Disintegration is my favourite.
>>61864177
Ok, Morrissey.

what is this thread even fug ;DD

Daniel ash imho is the underrated genius of Bauhaus, both tones on tail and love and rockets are more enjoyable
I like Pornography the most
Welcome my dear friends.
Pornography Is My favorite album of all time but the smiths is better than the cure imo desu senpai baka.
>>61868270
ohaio sempai!
>>61863982
Even though I love a lot of their albums and I do think they have some great songs that weren't singles. I agree though. Smith can create some really great pop tunes. Close to me, Why Can't I be You, Love Song, Lullaby, Lovecats. These are all just some really fun singles.
My favourite Cure album. Am I a pleb?

Shows how played out the whole "Pornography is best!!!!" thing is
It's fine though
>>61868270
this pretty much sums up how i feel too
>>61868223
>pornography
who's going to update the archive with a non 128kbps link
>>61869551
This. The archives links for their albums are mostly dead as well.
>>61869613
kiss me, disintegration, and standing on a beach all had working 320 links as of a week ago, in case you're digging through.
>>61869708
I've been searching "The Cure mega" and just get a bunch of dead links. But I am now finding some that still work by searching zippyshare instead though.
>>61870032
I do see a distinct lack of pornography in there as

The Head on the Door is best
Faith is definitely my favorite from their catalog. Just look at that album cover. Cathedral in fog. Atmosphere. Gloom. Anguish. And then the drums come in. Yes. Riffs. Vocals. So good.
>>61871445
I've never known what that album cover was until now. kek
>>61871669
Actually my bad it's not a cathedral, it's a 12th century Augustinian monastery... Wikipedia:
The front cover, designed by former and future member Porl Thompson, is a picture of Bolton Priory in the village of Bolton Abbey in the fog.
But yeah I think the cover really captures the sentiment of the music - imagining yourself walking around ancient religious stonework in the misty rain, with that duh duh DUH duh duh duh drum beat from all cats are grey in the background... the haunting guitars... and the apathy in the vocals... chilling
>>61871669
Yeah me too I just thought it was random greyness
All Cats Are Grey is my favorite Cure song
