Disintegration was a great album, but really only because: The girls like it, therefore you like it.

A general, universal rule that is almost always true in music is thus: the simpler the guitars and riffs in a band are, the better the band is. Yes, I know there are tons of speed metal bands, etc. with 92 chords in every song, 4 tuning changes, and 312 staccato notes played in 4 solos on every song.

Yet, everyone can instantly remember the Beatles, Cure, Ramones, every band from the 1960s, every country song ever written until 1989 or so, etc. Bands that had 4 chords max and maybe an 8 note guitar solos, max, in every song.

Never really liked them back in the day, but I watched this song from their 2019 RnR HOF induction live, and they really sounded good.  I won't say I'm a fan, it's not my style, but have to admit they're a good band.

Early Cure was great, my favorite was the Faith album. I wasn't a big fan of the later stuff. I saw them live once when they were old and fat (like me).

I was a big Cure fan in the 80s and just moved on; its funny though that video sounds sooooo much better than the CDs and tapes I was listening to back then, I hear stuff I never remember being in that song.

One of my favorites of theirs.

Sinking:

I am slowing down
As the years go by
I am sinking

So I trick myself
Like everybody else

The secrets I hide
That twist me inside
And make me weaker

So I trick myself
Like everybody else
So I trick myself
Like everybody else

I crouch in fear and wait
I'll never feel again
If only I could, if only I could
If only I could remember
Anything at all

I’ve seen them play decades apart. Still a great band. Most recently at ACL more than a few years ago.

Making out with a chick to Disintegration in college ‘89-93 led to sex 100% of the time.  Even Sex Panther cologne cannot compete with that.

Well, Morrissey never shows up at shows, so at least you don't have to see him live.

I can agree re Morrissey.
