A Forest. The end. 4 / 5
Interesting to hear the Cure at the beginning of their career, really only previously familiar with the 'hits' off this one. Very atmospheric, and A Forest really pops out from the rest of the album in terms of songwriting maturity. My favorite part might be the heavy bass that hits at the end of At Night, will definitely revisit this on late night walks in the neighborhood. 4/5
I like a lot of the Cure albums that come after this one, but this didn't really do much for me. Maybe I will need to give it a few more listens to re-asses but this is currently sitting around a 3-3.5.
The album where the Cure became the Cure.
My first listen to a full Cure album aside from Disintegration. For the most part, it was pretty good. favs: In Your House, A Forest, Seventeen Seconds worst: Three
