Used to be my favorite Cure album. It's still solid though.

On some days this is my favourite Cure album, even though my real fave is Disintegration.
But when you are in the mood for a shorter, more upbeat album this one is a winner.

My fave is Kiss Me because it's their most eclectic. But you're right, on a given day The Head on the Door really hits the spot.

I sincerely think it’s the best cure album and one of the best albums of the 80s. Their pop-py stuff is way more enjoyable. Check out my list ?

I'm on a Cure kick right now so this is fitting. I think some of their darker/more Gothic albums like Seventeen Seconds or Pornography appeal to me more right now, but The Head on the Door is pretty close.

OMG I freaking love this album. Definitely one of my favorite 80s albums period. Outstanding pop. On level with Disintegration, and everything else honestly.
This month I reduced alot of my 100/100s down to 95s or 90s, but this one stood tall with its catchy quality. Thank you Cure.

I'd say 5th, maybe 4th best The Cure album. In Between Days is a perfect pop (or pop rock) song, Close to Me, The Blood, Push, A Night Like This are all excellent. In fact there isn't a less than stellar song. Probably the best Cure album to show to your friends who aren't into music.

Yeah Kiss Me is a great album too.
I used to play that all the time when I was 17.
You're right - there's a lot of different styles on there.
