Great compilation for new fans !Stop crying please ! Of course this is not the ultimate greatest hits from Robert Smith and friends. This is not the goal, neither.
This kind of album is a retrospective of a band, not an anthology. So, the choice of songs is great considering that you are not a big fan of the band. If so, buy a box set or the best albums from the 80s. Same thing if you want to explore the overall creative sense of Robert Smith.
If you heard a bit about The Cure before, but you don't want to pay to hear all songs, good and bad, (you just want to discover a bit more about the great songs they wrote), this is for you. I knew 2 or 3 hits from the band and bought this album because I was curious about other songs. I discovered great hits and another aspect of Smith's creativity. The sound is great, the CD duration is OK with 16 songs (some greatest hit albums offer much less), and the overall playlist is a good choice of old, newer and different kind of rythms and lyrics (happiness, sadness, love, you'll get a great mix of atmosphere.) You like the 80s and you know a few nice songs from this band, but you want to know a bit more for a great value....this is a MUST for your CD collection.Great band...Not only is The Cure one of the best bands but they also have a talented singer. Robert Smith has been out snice the 70s, and still is playing music to this day. He sounds the same, he looks the same. Any band that can stay play at his age must be very strong and a great musican.The cureThe cure is one of the best bands from any time. They are very meaningful and deep. And Robert Smiths voice is so dark and luring. And it's great music to sing to...right Lor? |
