This album is the equivalent of blowing air past all the things in your left nostril--smells, hairs, veins, EVERYTHING--for the rest of your life! And don't you think James don't know what he sayin, Playuh!
Love love love

I had forgotten how much I love this album

Every single song on this album is good. I try to find comparable music to what I used to listen to growing up (The Cure, Siouxsie & The Banshees, etc.) and I just can't. I feel like an old dude that is still into Lynard Skynard because that's what was playing on the radio when he was a kid--but I can't help it--this sh** is the BEST. I used to have this record on cassette LOL.
Darker Goth Mood In Contrast To Their Others......

By Bill Appel
With this 8-song album, the overall content never got critically acclaimed as one of the better Cure releases with its darker, slower and more somber goth feel in contrast with their other successes however this set contains two of their best songs with one of my personal favorites being "All Cats Are Grey" and the other standout being "The Drowning Man". Still a must for anyone with any interest in The Cure sound if not for the overall strength of the album but for the two standout songs I mentioned alone at least!!!
I miss the 80's Cure

I love The Cure and everything they do, but I wish they'd put out more albums like this one. Of all their albums I think this one flows so perfectly. Great to listen to in a dark room.
unnoticed, underreviewed and underappreciated

This album comes up nowhere in any all-time lists, even when talking about the cure (because they have so many stand out albums - pornography, head on the door, kiss me, kiss me, kiss me, etc.) but it's an ethereal journey that is quite sonically cohesive and worth the time. The bass lines in most of the songs are strong and carry the whole album. It's an album about misty grayness, despair and melancholy. A rainy day album, when you have nothing to think about (or you've decided to think about nothing) and just float for a while - something many people don't do enough of - in my humble opinion. Get it and listen to it. Listen to it while you're lying on your back and staring at the ceiling - LOL!
"A must get"

This album brings outstanding bass lines only Simon Gallup could bring to the table. This album from beginning to end is a complete masterpiece with upbeat "Primary" to there enigmatic sounds of "the Drowning Man" a must get.....
Bass at Its Best

The thing that gets me about this album is the bass
there is seriously nothing better than this
the first four tracks are great examples
