To be fair, The Cure were my favorite band until I overplayed them and got into The Fall.
Up until Wish, I don't think they had a single bad song or even weak song. The Baby Screams is the closest they got to a bad song. |

See i think a good fan can be objective. Otherwise you might as well just rate all their songs a 7 or plus like they were on chain of flowers site. Well when i used to go there like 12 years ago.

Actually, I think The Kiss is pretty boring.
But otherwise, yeah, flawless |

Robert smith is my idol still. I still like him. I don't think he is a dick or delusional and I don't care if he is fat and balding and hanging on to his youth because I still think he is relevant an amazing songwriter.. And I don't even like recent cure stuff at all. The most recent things I can think of loving are a song for a tribute to john martyr called "small hours". its amazing. And crystal castles stuff was okay. Better than thr deep house shit. But I am a 38 year old teenager.

hey stick to the fall. your 2 word thoughts on songs suck and you don't get the kiss until you've had acid and hate and love someone so much killing them is a sexual fantasy.

The Cure need a Rockumentary or a book by one of the members or SOMETHING
I really dig that stuff, the history and everything, and most big bands have some form of additional media to read or watch |

This reminds me that I wonder how Lol felt when Robert was singing Shiver and Shake. did he know it was about him? I mean i don't think he's ever said it was but it seems pretty fucking obvious. Actually what am i saying, he was probably drunk somewhere, busy NOT being in the studio. But when he heard it the first time, wherever that was.

Elph, buy the book 10 imaginary years, a visual history and if you want MTV shit there is an MTV icon show as well as a few unauthorized shit bios on YouTube. go to chain of flowers website and read all 15 billion pages. find the articles roger wrote about thr disintegration sessions and wish. there is tons of stuff out there for troop fans.

lol
i love it when the producers try and do that there was this blur audio thing where some guy was just talkin about the band and there was this pseudo-britipop thing that would play in the background that i actually looked forward to every time the kiss is pretty great though i agree that's a weird one to uh single out what the hellman Quote:

That icon show is ALSO fucking embarrassing. The bands they have..seriously...it's like if that's the people you influenced...but of course they influenced GOOD bands, just not those bad ones.
This reminds me i had an argument with an ex once about how you know she thought The Cure was just lame and in no way as influential as Talking Heads. This was just a handful of years before the post punk/new wave revival too so it was harder for me to find examples even if there were already a lot... I mean TH is extremely influential too but i'm not sure i can pick which one is most between the two. |

Yeah i agree. I mean he was useless for some years and actually..most...but...put the guy out of his misery you know. This was a case of standing by your friend for too long. Feeling some sort of sense of loyalty that shouldn't have been there. I mean, Lol COULD have learned to play keyboard properly (not like cure lines are hard) could have learned to be better on drums. He just didn't try, he was too punk for it (well i saw him in like mid 80s interviews saying he still saw himself as punk).... And Smith just drove him MORE into alcohol i'm sure, the way he was handled, the shit he'd say in interviews with him RIGHT THERE. And I think he wouldn't have taken care of it too if the band hadn't given him an ultimatum over it Lol probably would have died.

Yeah lol played live with them some time in the last couple of years. it's good, you wouldn't think they would veer have..but age does that. Some shit just really stops to matter, things change.
And i also know about Simon's son, i checked out his band like maybe a couple of years back. Its fucking embarrassing. Emo shit. "Look dad me too!" "No....no son...just no" And about Porl, i jsut wasn't surprised. It's kinda just sad that it happens now. I mean...seems liek he probably wasted a lot of years unhappy in his body. |

Stumbled across this in mint condition at a local record store. Seems like it could be their version of TAFH. Cool booklet included in the set. Favorite b-sides? I haven't listened to them yet. I have a good guess at the poster above me's preference. |
