Product ReviewsDisintegration by Cure (CD, 1989)

My favorite Cure album

The case was a bit worn out, but it’s about 35 years old as of this writing, so that’s to be expected (I replaced it with a newer CD case anyway). The CD itself looks almost new and still plays perfectly. It’s my favorite Cure album that helped me get thru a different time in my life back in the day, and it’s one of those albums that I just play all the way thru without skipping any tracks. I never get tired of it. I just love it. Read full review...

Excellent Record

This is a phenomenal album. Some of The Cure's work, I feel, has a bare bones, almost incomplete and disjointed feel, and at times the mixes are not the best (just an opinion), but Disintegration is a standout album and every song holds up extraordinarily well. It is their masterpiece and a showcase for sure. If you buy only one album by The Cure, make it this one. Read full review...

Disintegration CD by The Cure

One of my favorite bands from my younger days. This CD is one of their best in my opinion. Dark at times but really good lyrics and music and as always Robert Smith sings like few can, if you've never heard it do so if you like Alternative music. Many have labeled this Goth. I was a Goth, this isn't much of Goth, it is melancholy at times but not true Goth, like other bands. For example Bauhaus. The Cure has done all kinds of songs from sad, to happy dance to adolescent angst. One of my top 100 favorite releases. Read full review...

CD The Cure....Disintegration

This is the BEST album The Cure has ever made, both lyrically and instrumentally. Robert Smiths vocals transfix you, the lyrics "speak to you"- he has the uncanny ability to get inside your head and put together YOUR feelings in words.. I have had the immense pleasure of seeing them Live for the first time at age 16 in Toronto, Canada, during "The Wish" tour, and have seen them 4 other times (all Toronto). Every effort is consisitently put into every set- they have never played for less than 2 hours, and then had 2-3 Encore's. Live is just as great as digitally remastered, the instruments and lyrics are always dead on but not lip syched (sp?). Any person who gives "alternative/punk" a chance will discover they are true music icons, one of the last bands ever to play long instrumental intros, and literally keep their vocal quality, never "sell out" and always appear eager to please the audience. If you have never heard any Cure songs, for "anger" try "Disintegration", love "Love Song" and sorrow "Pictures of You" or "Plainsong" or "Swimming in the Same Deep Water as You".....I NEVER write reviews, as everyone's personal taste generally dictates their preferences, but for young (I am now still the biggest fan in my eyes, my babies fall asleep listening to "Rock-a-bye"- Renditions of The Cure, instrumental by orchestra (BRILLIANT!) and old alike, I find it almost impossible for anyone NOT to like real instruments and meaningful lyrics.Read full review...

The Cure

An oldie, but new to me. I purchased four of their cds and will add more to my collection. Robert Smith's vocals are full of emotion ranging from dark and deep to fun and light. A true artist and I now understand why they continue to sell out their concerts. Highly recommend listening. Read full review...

Skeptical at first

I was skeptical when it was listed as “acceptable.” Disc showed no scratches or wear and tear. Bottom line: it sounds as good as new. If there any other finds from this Goodwill I will buy again.

So goth, so brilliant

I had the cd when it came out and hadn’t listened to it in over 25 years.im happy to report how utterly timeless it is. There is no filler. Every song is a work of art. Im glad i still love it

Disintegration is the greatest album ever

It's not just my opinion, it's fact. Disintegration combines so many different stylistic songs, rhythms, yet they all mesh. Simon's creative basslines take you on a gentle musical ride. Boris' drum parts carry you on Simon's ride. Roger's key parts add that extra emotion and accent Robert's outstanding vocals. Porl's guitar riffs add a heavy twist, and Robert's emotions can very clearly be heard through his vocals.
The lyrics will tear your heart open, the music will soothe the wounds. So when you pop this album in, just know the journey you are about to embark on.Read full review...

Cutting-edge music.

Cutting-edge music. This was my first en-devour into The Cure and Disintegration lived up to my wildest expectations.
