The Cure - Disintegration Album

The Disintegration album from The Cure is a lush, evocative pop album created on a grand scale. All of the tunes on the disc are mood pieces that slowly and steadily wrap around the listener until he is sucked into The Cure's harrowing universe. Most of the songs are highly personal, plaintive and moody. They deal with the joys and sorrows of love, but mostly the sorrows. Broken bonds, old lies, missed opportunities, belated realizations. They are all expressed in such stunning candor that anyone who has experienced the downside of love will find his or her deepest thoughts, noble and petty alike, rendered poetically here.
