	Faith (The Cure album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Faith is the third album by British alternative rock band The Cure, released in 1981 (see 1981 in music).
		One of the songs on the album, "The Drowning Man", is inspired by the Gormenghast novels by Mervyn Peake.
		The album is basically about lead singer Robert Smith's lack of faith and his desire to find it.

	The Cure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Cure is a British pop band widely seen as one of the leading pioneers of the British alternative rock and post-punk scenes of the 1980s.
		The Cure released their first single "Killing an Arab" to both acclaim and controversy: while the single's provocative title led to accusations of racism, the song is actually based on French existentialist Albert Camus' story The Stranger.
		In 1979, The Cure released the album Three Imaginary Boys and embarked on an extensive period of touring, during which they performed with various other iconic bands such as Joy Division and Siouxsie and the Banshees, leading eventually to a side-project collaboration between Smith and Banshees member Steven Severin, released under the name The Glove.

		Smitten with The Cure since his early teens, Robinson had publicly stated that working with the band would be his ultimate achievement, and his determination to make this their best album ever has pushed them to new limits, which is why they're happy to call this one simply - The Cure.
		When the fourth album, 1982's unrelentingly grim Pornography, proved to be the first Cure album to enter the British Top Ten album chart, it was obvious that the rule book and The Cure had nothing in common.
		The result is that, although the album includes songs covering a range of musical styles, the emotional intensity of every performance never flags, so that a tuneful pop gem is delivered with the same conviction as a grinding single-riff onslaught.

	The Cure Album Reviews
		Although the album as a whole is uncharacteristically upbeat, lines like “but I’m still not sure what’s going on, and I can’t help feeling something’s wrong” and “I’m sick of it all” show that Smith hasn’t quite mastered this happiness thing just yet, which is generally a good thing where his music is concerned.
		First of all, despite their singles knack, The Cure have always been album oriented artists, and each of their albums from this period have distinct characteristics that are lost when simply sampled from.
		Bloodflowers (Elektra ‘00) Rating: B+ Robert Smith's favorite Cure album was billed as the third installment in the Pornography/Disintegration trilogy, though I maintain you could link several of their other albums as well, Faith and Wish especially.

	The Cure: album reviews and ratings
		An excellent collection of the early Cure work, for those of you who would like to catch up on the 1979-1985 years.
		There is a method to Robert Smith's madness, however, and the two albums are different enough to stand on their own and satisfy fans who love the Cure for disparate reasons.
		PARIS, the first of the two to be released in America, showcases the darker moodier side of the Cure, favoring extended explorations of some of the Cure's most difficult material.

	BBC NEWS \| Entertainment \| Review: The Cure's new album
		The new Cure album is the Cure in its purest form.
		But the cure are a lot older now and still manage to keep the "Cure" style and once again stay as one of the giants of gothic rock/pop.
		This album is truely a return to form, with many angst ridden lyrics from the genius mind that is Robert Smith floating on a backdrop of loose and swirling guitar.......

	Adrian's Album Reviews : The Cure
		Well, partly because the album is the most perfectly sequenced and thought out of The Cure albums thus far, and it kind of demands that the order intended is the order of the album.
		This album is probably the Cure's masterpiece; they took being as dark, dysfunctional and drug addled as they could.
		Expectations perhaps were overly high, certain Cure fans almost lived or died through their Cure albums.

		The Cure has been around for over 25 years and a tribute album is long overdue.
		For moderate Cure fans or people who are looking to hear more songs by The Cure, it would be better to take a listen to a few of the tracks before committing any money toward it.

	Rolling Stone : The Cure: Album by Album
		The Jam were recording their album during the day and we used to sneak in at night and use their equipment -- we knew the bloke who was looking after it -- to record our album.
		Songwriting-wise, the album was the band's first group effort, and, according to Smith, it became a double album simply because they were having so much fun that they didn't want to stop.
		Every album up to that point had sold more than the last one, and suddenly the record company was confronted with this horrifying drop in sales, and they didn't have a fuckin' clue as to why we'd ever sold records in the first place.

		True, The Cure doesn't have any immediately accessible pop moments, but they were always a great album band who only periodically stumbled across a radio-friendly tune--after all, even their classic Disintegration only boasted one obvious pop tune in "Lovesong".
		This is a remarkable album and catapults the Cure into a zone they left behind after the heady days of the late '80s and early '90s.
		The albums that really hit the spot for me were the earlier albums especially Pornography and 17 seconds.

		The Cure have already put out one of the most celebrated best-of's of the rock era, "Staring At The Sea", covering all the singles from their 1979-1985 period (definitely the fans' favorite era).
		I love the Cure and will go to the grave a die hard fan but this album let's the loyal posse down because it is the same as the last 3 or maybe 4 albums.
		The raw,doom and gloom, emotional music that real cure fans demand was left on the Kiss Me Kiss Me Album.For a first time listener this would be a 5 star but for a regular its a 3 because we have rated this album under a different title before.

	The Cure - Bloodflowers \| Album Review @ Music-Critic.com : the source for music reviews, interviews, articles, and ...
		Written on the back of a host of cracking festival gigs and recorded at several studios in the south of England, Bloodflowers is well worth the wait, taking full advantage of hi-tech equipment and creating a nine-track album that must rank as one of their strongest.
		Smith’s vocals aren’t the strongest that the music industry has ever come across, but musically this album is a gem that has plenty of opportunity to shine in this collection of new songs that reach as long as 11 minutes in length.
		Putting the title track and "39" aside, this is a tight new release from The Cure and while it’s difficult to see where any hit singles are going to come from, the album is a credit to their realism and creativity.

	Blogcritics.org: CD Review: The Cure
		I am not sure if the album is self-titled because they have run out of ideas or if they are trying to reach a new audience in the guise of a debut album.
		Nevertheless, this is a must have album for Cure fans and it may attract the attention of a younger Radiohead generation.
		It sounds like the album was hurried and recorded without the thought and effort required to create a timeless release that The Cure is so capable of.

		Four of The Cure's early albums are being eyed for an August 17th re-release-- including their 1979 debut, Three Imaginary Boys, 1980's Seventeen Seconds, 1981's Faith, and 1982's Pornography-- with the remaining albums to follow, Costello-style, over the next 18 months.

		The Cure have changed their sound three distinct times, in my opinion: post-punk, slow goth synth and finally, prozac'd happy pop.
		The beginnings of the lush, atmospheric Cure are here ("Other Voices" and "The Forest"), but these four songs with minimal guitar and synths really display the young, criminally underrated talent of (the drummer), Simon Gallup and Smith in his early rhythm-driven arrangements.
		The Cure made a video for it but for some reason never released it on any of their studio albums, although I believe on one of the recent re-issues "Charlotte Sometimes" is present.

		For years, indie rock statesmen the Wrens have been grappling with Wind-Up Records and its president Alan Meltzer over the rights to two albums they recorded on Meltzer's dime way back in the 1990s, when the label was known as Grass Records.
		According to a press release sent by Absolutely Kosher late last week, two previous attempts to simply license the records were met with insistance from Wind-Up that an advance the label had given to the Wrens in 1996 be repaid before they would even be open to negotiating.
		For now, the band is back on the road in their usual style: Holding down jobs during the work week, and throwing shows in cities across the country on the weekends.

		After the fallout both psychologically and physically of Pornography, it looked unlikely that anyone would hear from the Cure ever again.
		Adding new keyboard sounds, old-timey percussion, standup bass, and some damn silly lyrics rejuvenated Robert Smith and sent him on a course that would cement his role as one of the most interesting musicians to emerge from the '80s underground.
		Japanese Whispers is one of those rare releases when a singles collection works just as well as a standard-issue album.
