Re: The Cure!

The Cure was a lot like Depeche Mode and Duran Duran to me. I didn't care too much for their early material, but I got into their later stuff as they matured as a band and their sound evolved.

I second the recommendation for Wish. I think The Cure really matured as a band in the 90's and that's evident on Wish.

I also like the remixed versions of their 80's hits on 1990's Mixed Up.

The Cure

I love this band and have all their studio albums, my mate told me they covered this recently:


They have a totally different style to a lot of bands and his voice is something that only certain people like!!

Re: The Cure!

I liked "Wish" and loved the later album "The Cure" this is one of my faves though:



My fave is "The Exploding Boy" a b-side from early 80's

Re: The Cure!

:bump:

Just thought I'd bring to light Robert Smith's (fairly) recent collaboration with electronic band Crystal Castles, as it popped into my head just then. I actually really dig it, even though it's completely different from The Cure's music :D
