Starts off good, but gets quite despressing quickly. An OK album, but if i had to choose a favourite Cure album, I'd go with 'Bloodflowers' 😎

This album never did a thing for me. I'm not much of a Cure fan at all, really.

If I listen to any Cure album at all, it'd most likely be Boys Don't Cry. Mainly, I'll listen to that one for "Killing an Arab." I always found that track to be interesting to listen to.

This album has a great reputation, but I don't think it's their best. It's a dark record, but somehow I've always thought this darkness was a little bit overstated and not sincere. It's a good record, but I think The Cure's masterpiece is Seventeen Seconds.

I personally think that Pornography is one of their best albums. Its very dark, angry, and depressing, but that's part of its enduring power. And its also one of the reasons why many Cure fans consider it their best album
