the head chef whacked on the standing on a beach singles last week. im back into it now. brings me back almost ten years, to when i was a gothic waste of space.
listening to this is a really enjoyable experience now, the lovely insulated yet weightless sound of 'a forest', 'primary', and 'play for today' have been spot on train riding material.

A++ The Cure are the best no doubt. The forest, Oh yeah that bass is "lush" :P
Standing on the beach is probobly the best singles compilation i've ever heard for any band.

Those might be my three favorite Cure tracks right there. I love the spareness of those first few albums.

I like The Head on The Door
I also enjoy Three Imaginary Boys, their first album. It's in a completely different style, like Joy Division-esque post punk.

Can anyone who's heard "the cure" album tell me if it's worth listening ? For someone who's a fan of Pornography, Head on the door, and hates the trippy-hoppy Bloodflowers ? What's your thoughts on it ??
Cheers and thansk for any quick and thoughtful response.

I grew up listening to them so its incredibly hard for me to pick my favorite album, but I do tend to like their earlier to mid material more so than their newer stuff, the acoustic album was kind of cool, especially the version of love cats...too much good stuff

I'm the same although I was really dissapointed with Wish where it seems they produced "Friday I'm In Love" and the rest of the album they forgot about.
Didn't really listen to newer stuff after that.

i'm listening to "Wish", getting really excited, going to bump a thread about The Cure and ask HOW the fuck did they come to recording the latest album. Smith is able to write better songs, isn't he ? :/

Been listening to Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Pornography lately. All of them are brilliant, but the first one is the best.

Boys don't cry is my favorite song. I absolutely love the sound of the guitar in that tracks. So solid and metallic. Crunchy yet clean. I also love Roberts vocal melodies in songs like this one. Just like heaven has that same almost rap style.

I just saw them live on sunday for teh first time and after having listened to them my whole life i can tell you that it was one of the best live music experiences ive ever had.
robert still has it thats for sure.
they played lots of older stuff thank god and did some extended versions of stuff that really gave you an appreciation for the drumming.

I just read an article on how they did the drums on the forest. They used c-ducer mics. Which are basically contact mics. So, no room sound. No ambient noise. They sound more like a drum machine as a result

They also really compressed the cymbals a fuck load. they really seem to go on forever.
Seventeen seconds is probably my fave although Disintegration i also fucking awesome.
