Why This Album Is So Great:

This is the second album by The Cure - only this one is a runner up. Still dark in its atmosphere, compared to "Disintegration" this album seems somewhat more optimistic in melody and the songs in general. Still, songs like "Apart" and "Trust" scream out in silent despair while catchy tunes like "Friday I'm In Love" and "Doing The Unstuck" keep the balance with a less depressive personality. Still, to say that I like The Cure because of their happier songs would be untrue. To me, The Cure is a meeting with frustration, bittersweet emotion and still a hopeful and naive view of love. For me, the best Cure albums are from the mid-eighties and on, even though most of their material deserves attention. Therefore, I also recommend the two greatest hits albums "Standing On A Beach" and "Galore" if the band is new to you.

Overall Rating (on a scale from 1 to 10):8
