Am I pleb for only having this in my library? What am I missing out on?

Holy fuck, yes. Listen to Pornography, it's the best goth record ever and one the best albums to portray pure anguish and depression. Then listen to Disintegration, which is one the best records ever made. Faith and Seventeen Seconds are pretty good albums as well.

cool thanks m80

Pornography nearly drove me to kill myself when I was at my lowest desu

Granted I listened to it and Closer back to back...not the best idea in hindsight

Robby and the band were in a really fucked/probably suicidal mental state when they made that, I doubt they'd want to do it again

Closer and Pornography are my absolute favorite "goth" albums and will definitely be the two albums that I listen to before I kill myself.

I'm of course glad that they were able to move on from that state of mind, and do enjoy their other albums (primarily Disintegration), but I do wish they stuck to this style rather than the popper direction they ended up going in. Nevertheless, I love The Cure and Robert Smith.

The Holy Bible rounds out those two albums as my essential kill myself-core trilogy of albums

I've never heard of this album. I'm going to listen to it right now.

Faith is their best.
Have Faith in Faith and you will agree.

Faith is a great album, but no where near as good as Pornography. That said, The Funeral Party is one of my all time favorite Cure songs.

this is one of the albums in the category I like to call “albums where the best song is ‘Cold’”

The best song is clearly "Siamese Twins".

hey more like "The Figurehead"

>it's the best goth record ever
No it isn't.

If you have the 'Acoustic Hits' bonus disc, then keep it. Those are actually really good. But yeah, you're really missing out if you just have a greatest hits comp of a band like The Cure.

That compilation is absolute trash. Please listen to Pornography and Disintegration.

my nibba

yeah gotta agree, definitely not the best. One of the best without a doubt though.

I also take Figurehead as the best.

thanks

Pornography is great as it is, a pornography part 2 would sound tongue-in-cheek and dishonest, the change in the sound was good because it made them a more versatile band and we have more things to listen to in retrospective.

For me the gated reverb on the drums and the primitive synths of Pornography are hard to get by.

Best goth album for my money would be Mask by Bauhaus

It's my personal best, or I guess I should say my personal favorite. What do you think the best goth record is?

This is the best reply in this whole thread. Makes total sense when you put it into context like that. Pornography being one of a kind in the Cure discography only makes it that more unique and poignant.

I've always liked In the Flat Field better, but Mask is still a damn fine goth album.

I love the first three Bauhaus records but the bass playing on Mask is just so fucking good.

I love David J's bass lines as much as Simon Gallup's

Pornography rules.

It sound like fucking nu male band... Just kidding, i really dislike his voice.

Fuck I just put this record on and forgot how good it is

My point was that different sounding albums = more options for us to listen to. But yeah you're totally right
