Though to be honest, I'm a quite unhappy person and I've always meant to go back to the early 80's cure, which I hear is the real "goth" music prelude, so to say. When they got that real dark image they didn't really shake off to the mid-to late 80's with songs like Just like Heaven.

Not really sure what albums I'm looking for though, to get down with the nitty gritty dark Cure, any suggestions?
well 'they' call 17 seconds, Faith and Poronography 'the dark trilogy'. I find 17 seconds the lightest of the the three with Faith being more bleak than dark and Porongoraphy being the most mental sounding. They've all got their high points and they're all a bit patchy too. Another thing is 17 seconds and Faith sound like they're virtualy one album split in to two but Poronography's very different.
