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

The Cure- A Forest /Live '81 |
|
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. |

View Quote 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).

View Quote 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 (Remastered) 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.

Where good music is involved, the answer is usually drugs. lots and lots and lots of drugs.

Let's put something in your collective heads that you won't be able to get out:

I seent them in their very early days, before they were big. I actually went to see John Ottway who was opening for them.

Plainsong (2010 Remaster) |

I can appreciate their music, but never liked new wave music back in the 80's or today. Pass.
