| _____________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 10:24am - MotleyGrue ""] First real experience with this album was back around 2001, went to the record store with girlfriend at the time, she saw it and wanted it so I bought it for her. Went home and banged her out while the album played and repeated, couldnt tell you any of the track names, but was a good memory, same goes for the Concrete Blonde Bloodletting album. |

| _____________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 11:34am - arilliusbm ""] I like Disintegration a lot as well. That album marked the period in which they were also gaining more attention and shifting to the more popular sound. what do the new albums sound like? I haven't heard them. |
| __________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 11:37am - MikeOv ""] I also enjoy Wish more than Pornography. Open is a hell of a way to start off an album. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 11:40am - Czarnobog ""] yeah, its a little more commercial. but i think the songwriting was better too. its a popular album for good reason. pornography is good, but some of the songs are kinda clunky. and a couple just sound corny as hell when you give it a later-life listen. no idea what new cure sounds like, but last time i saw a picture of robert smith he looked like rosie o'donnell. gonna guess not good. |

Just didnt really listen to them or give them a chance, thought they were too faggy back then, since then my opinion has changed. At least I was banging a broad about it. overnighter and out |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 1:29pm - arilliusbm ""] I would make an argument that Carpathian Forest is usually an overnighter black metal band, too. Didn't even know they covered the cure. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 1:51pm - Czarnobog ""] pfft, was listening to wimpy goth music back when carpathian forest was called... [metal archives search] ...enthrone. |
| ____________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 2:05pm - arilliusbm ""] Only Christian Death is real. |

Though I had a guitar teacher that insisted on teaching me Killing an Arab, that wasn't a terrible song. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 26,2013 8:40pm - goatrider ""] Now, comparisons to Christian Death aren't fair. The Rozz Williams era albums were pretty much the best band, artist, singer, songwriter, soloist, composer, orchestra, genre, or jazz ensemble in the history of time. That being said, '100 Years' and 'The Hanging Garden' stand right up there with the entirety of Disintegration and arguably Bloodflowers as The Cure's best work. They're still great, Robert Smith is pretty much the "goth" version of Lemmy in a lot of ways. |
