THE CURE - Pornography LP

Later hailed as one of the key goth rock albums of the '80s and considered by many hardcore Cure fans to be the band's best album, Pornography was largely dismissed upon its 1982 release, witheringly reviewed as a leaden slab of whining and moping. The truth, as usual, is somewhere in between: Pornography is much better than most mainstream critics of the time thought, and in retrospect, it is the masterpiece fans have claimed it to be. The overall sound is thick and atmospheric in the way that Disintegration mangled a few years later. Suitably bleak for all midnight drive requirements. We should know we have road tested this one for at least, ahem, 100 years. -Jensen (with help from Stewart Mason)
