Goth Rock / Alternative Pop
♥♥♥ The Same Deep Water As You / ♥♥ Fascination Street / ♥ Prayers For Rain
What a surprise! After a bland career, full of forgettable albums, British hits me with this overwhelming one. The curiosity of "Plainsong" and "Pictures Of Love", the happiness of "Love Song", the desolation from "Prayers For Rain" and "The Same Deep Water As You". I find this album as a journey through life. Robert Smith's voice is heartbreaking.
