MB Artists Classics- The Cure- Faith

And were back with the Artists Classics. This time we have The Cure's Faith album from 1981. Is the third time a charm?

pretty good review

I thought so too. Very impressive, Elph

Don't they still play shows?

I think he means this lineup specifically.

Ah. Makes sense.

Did I miss something or is rubber soul just blatantly copying TH? I think I missed something.

This album was close to being a 7 for me, but I went for an 8 instead. I think this album is really quite good. Definitely solid, and pretty entertaining as well. But is it anything spectacular? I would say no. Other Voices and The Drowning Man are my favorite tracks. This album, if anything, is really really low-key. Primary and Doubt are the only tracks which mix things up at all, which would be good if they had some interesting hooks, which they don't really. So every track on this album is about the same level of good, but not great. The two tracks I mentioned are the only IMO that go above and beyond.

I decided to stop doing these, and Rubber Soul asked if he could take over. I told him to go ahead, so he's taking the reins on it now. With my blessings.
