probably my favorite band of all time. started out as some run of the mill punk act, immediately evolved into one of the greatest goth bands of all time, for three albums, then they kinda turned into a pop band, but its ok. judge the albums, not the band. here are some of my favorite songs [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmbOLTWggXI]YouTube - THE CURE- PLAY FOR TODAY[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWmdt4Zn0-o]YouTube - The Cure - Siamese Twins - 1983[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seierIQ8GQM]YouTube - The Cure - The Hanging Garden (1982)[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_QrdQF6Cy8]YouTube - The Cure - The Holy Hour (Live John peel session 1981)[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB72pEKLO3g]YouTube - The Cure - Three[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFRL4GsILFU]YouTube - The Cure - other voices live metz 81[/ame]
i used to be a fan of all of the cure's catalog, but now i stick mainly to the second three albums, Seventeen Seconds, Faith, and Pornography. the cure's TRUE trilogy. that music is the dopest, gloomiest, most bass throbbing goth rock tracks ever laid down. the cure may not have made more goth albums, but that doesnt make them NOT legends. 3 amazing goth albums is still more than any other goth band i can think of.
Saw The Cure here in Hartford back in 98 and they put on one hell of a show. Vocals still crisp and fresh you'd think they were playin tracks. Went to a Flea Market earlier today and spotted like 5 or 6 obscure CDs. Ended up picking up The Cure "Trilogy" DVD for 2 bucks. Gonna head bakc there and scoop up the oddities next Sunday.
Damn I completely forgot about this band. YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. Good shit, I think the last time I listened to was before I started tokin.
