It's nice to see I'm not the only one with love for The Cure here. I saw them live in Stockholm earlier this year, and while the setlist wasn't exactly what I'd hoped for (too many surefire crowd-pleasers for my liking), it was an amazing evening.

I just wish they'd release the next batch of remastered albums (Disintegration and Wish included) already.

Wild Mood Swings is, in my opinion, a vastly underrated album.

I agree, it's insane how many people don't care for it.

i think the new album is okay, hopefully it'll grow on me.

underneath the stars, sirensong, this. here. now. with you., are all great, and i also like The Only one because it reminds of "Wish" era cure.

with that being said, the rest of the songs dont do much for me.

it also sucks that the song "Without You" was a b-side to the perfect boy single, yet it is better than some of the songs on the actual album!!

check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_10GqCnOYjM

if anyone has this song in mp3 form it would be awesome if u could send it me.

all in all the album is decent, but i hope it grows on  me more. still looking forward to the 12 or so gloomy songs that robert smith recorded and will hopefully release as another album in the future.

I'm done class in 2 hours, probably pick up my copy on the way home.

I picked up The Head on the Door last week, and it's another killer album.

Nixon, GnFnR87, how would you guys rank their catalogue?

i dont know if could rank all of them yet because i havent listened to Three Imaginary Boys at all, and i havent listened to Seventeen Seconds and Faith in a long time, but heres my top 5

1. Disintegration
2. Wish
3. Pornography
4. The Head on The Door
5. Kiss Me Kiss me Kiss me

The self titled is good, and Bloodflowers i'm still trying to get into, some of the songs plod along and dont do much for me, but the last track, the song bloodflowers, is awesome.

Are you referring to Join The Dots? For the duration of the first three discs, it makes for an interesting listen even at its worst, and contains quite a few gems, such as my all-time favorites This Twilight Garden, Adonais and A Japanese Dream.

I think the first half is amazing, but it does kind of lose steam during the second half.

My favorite song right now is probably "The Hungry Ghost," it's mindblowingly good.
