Favorite The Cure record ?
 
Mine is Disintegration. I've included Boys don't cry because it's kind of an album.

One of the Faith / Seventeen Seconds / Pornography trilogy, but I can't decide which. Or possibly The Top, if only for Shake Gog Shake and Give Me It.

Pornography! definitely!

Florya 06.14.2007 06:20 AM

Carnage Visors - Because it's instrumental
Also - the Magazine Spies/Obtainers split 7" - Because my brother in law was one of the Obtainers. OK It's not exactly a Cure record, but Simon Gallup played on it and the Cure paid for the studio time and pressing.

Seventeen Seconds.

I don't own any Cure albums.
I don't know why, I never really tried to get into them I guess.

HECKLER SPRAY 06.14.2007 08:26 AM

Pornography
Just that title... (kidding)

auto-aim 06.14.2007 08:30 AM

Pornography all the way... Just emotionally the cure have never made anything as hard hitting as that album I think - and it was made on drugs.

king_buzzo 06.14.2007 09:01 AM

Porno!

Savage Clone 06.14.2007 09:04 AM

Pornography hands down.
Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Carnage Visors are tied for second place.

Kyohan 06.14.2007 09:19 AM

Pornography, no contest.
Faith or Disintegration would be an honourable second.

PAULYBEE2656 06.14.2007 09:56 AM

it doesnt matter if we all die...................

best opening line of any album ever.......

porography is amasterpiece from an otherwise mediocre band. the cure are just simply not consistent enough to hold my attention for too long.......

faith/carnage visors is a second place medal with seventeen seconds in a credible third.....

Wake up in the dark
The aftertaste of anger in the back of my mouth
Spit it on the wall
And cough some more
And scrape my skin with razor blades
And make up in the new blood
And try to look so good
Follow me!
Make up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is
Ha ha ha!!!

As stale and selfish as a sick dog
Spurning sex like an animal of god
I'll tear your red hair by the roots
And hold you blazing
Hold you cherished in the dead electric light

Your face
I'll never see you this way again
I captured it so perfectly
As if I knew you'd disappear away

Shake dog shake

You hit me again
You howl and hit me again
The same sharp pain
Wakes me in the dark
And cuts me from my throat to my pounding heart
My heart
My shaking heart

Shake dog shake

But we slept all night in the virgin's bed
And dreamed of death
And breathed like sick dogs
We slept all night in the virgin's bed
And breathed like death
And dreamed of sick dogs

Shake dog shake

Wake up wake up wake up!
Shake dog shake
Wake up wake up wake up!
Shake dog shake

Wake up in the new blood
Make up in the new blood
Shake up in the new blood
And follow me to where the real fun is...

Shake dog shake



Now that is what I call a lyric.

I chose Head on the Door. It's got a little bit of everything on there. That's why i love Kiss Me too. Lots a different arrangemets and instruments. I think they followed each other, right? I love Pornography too, but it kinda bores me listening to it today..love the overall sound and effects on it.

atsonicpark 06.14.2007 10:43 AM

gotta be the self-titled one.

with ross robinson producing, it is just amazing. the cure became a lethal force again, tuning their guitars to mud sharp and having rap parts. if you listen closely, you can actually hear a chain wallet in the recording. fucking brutal.

atsonicpark 06.14.2007 10:43 AM

er..

pornography. disintegration is pretty good. i dunno, not a huge cure fan, but they are pleasant.

you know how they (as in "they" i mean the pulp fiction deleted scenes, but i'm sure it's a reference of something else...) say that you're either a beatles man or an elvis man? i think you're either a smiths man or a cure man.

finding nobody 06.14.2007 12:50 PM

I've taken to their first album lately. I love their version of Foxey Lady (more then Hendrix's!)

king_buzzo 06.14.2007 12:52 PM

I also like Kiss me kiss me kiss me

CHOUT 06.14.2007 07:57 PM

Many for various reasons...I think Boys Don't Cry Got me into 'em though.
