You just slay me with your Metal humor!

Yeah but seriously, the 80s sucks cause of The New Wave of Hair Spray Ballad Heavy Metal, which replaced the NWOBHM.
Except there was way more metal than that but you wouldn't know.

I also vote Disintegration. It's probably the most well rounded of their albums and has the best collection of songs. It's still moody and atmospheric but that's offset by gems like these:





I think Lullaby alone has at least 3 different equally iconic riffs which would have made any pop song stand out.

The fuck? I thought that only happened if you're in third world countries. The first video is Pictures of you. You can find it easily I think...;)

I have the album pulled up but I'll note that track. Also, I just wanted to bust balls.

The Cure's one song with a nearly universal appeal to Americans seems to be Just Like Heaven, the single that broke them into the Top 40 there.

A gorgeous pop song, and not as eccentric as their previous pop masterpieces.

Not many people know I toured with Petty. Taught him everything he knew. :laughing:

More than "Friday I'm in Love?"
