    Some albums allow you to see your entire past, present, and future, and Disintegration is one of the best ever. Robert Smith’s hauntingly delicate vocals and the winding/mazelike
    soundscapes give you a sense of being everywhere and nowhere. The album is a masterpiece of its genre.

    Pictures of you is an absolutely perfect song. All time classic. And Robert Smith does not get the credit he deserves for his guitar ability

    Disintegration is a masterpiece.
    These two tracks are perfection.

    Disintegration…man I played the heck out of that album back in the day, my youngest daughter was born in ‘89 and so many nights I used to listen to this rocking her at night.

    They had been doing good album after good album for years and then made THIS, THE BEST ALBUM EVER MADE 😱😱😱🤷🏻‍♂️. Though very popular and "mainstream" Robert Smith doesn't receives the recognition he deserves as a composer; from the saddest and darkest to the joyfulest and even happiest, he's done everything maintaining an own style. He's like those "classical" composers, Mozart for instance, that could make very light-hearted pieces and very dark ones.

    Takes me back to when I was living in the Isle of Skye. I bought the tape of Disintegration from the little record shop and I nearly wore it out. I still have it and its still my favourite Cure album. An absolute beauty!

    "Pictures of you" the quintessential high school teen angst breakup song. Lying in your bedroom with headphones listening to it while just knowing you will never heal from this intense heartbreak. Seems silly now to remember, but it is part of growing up.

    Great reaction, thanks Shawn😊 There are no words to describe what this album has meant to me since it was released, when I was 16. I saw them live for the first time that year...I still get goosebumps thinking about the opening of "Plainsong" at that concert.

    Unbelievable to think that this was 18 going on 19 for me when this came out.
    And even crazier is by the time this came out, I had been listening to them for 9 years already.....
    This entire album is amazing. But make sure to go back to the earlier stuff as well.
    One of the only bands that my first band would cover.
    The Cure is just one of the best period.

    Another band I loved but keep largely forgetting ever existed. Saw them at Glastonbury in 1989 with my sister ❤ Now, it puts me in mind of Bowie or Eno or similar. Up there with the best of ‘em.

      Robert Smith would love that comparison...he once called Bowie's 'Low' (made with Eno, as I'm sure you know) the "greatest record ever made" (which I agree with him about...and this one isn't far behind it, imo!)

    Everyone feels like "if only I had the words, I would have said the right thing" about any memory they cherish and dwell on. They didn't have to break up. It's just a really cool exploration of an aspect of long last love.
    You could be so on love with someone that THAT becomes why it's the most important thing to you.
