The Cure - Pornography

This was, if I'm right, the fourth album by the British Post-punk/Alternative rock band The Cure. At the time of its recording, The Cure consisted of a trio, Robert Smith, Lol Tolhurst and Simon Gallup, all of which shared writing and composition credits on the album. Its a really good introduction to The Cure, trust me, Disintegration is mediocre at best. Anyways the album marked the end of their original "Dark/Gothic" phase (Seventeen Seconds, Faith, Pornography). Afterwards, the future of the band was unsure, the group nearly disbanded, but instead would keep playing, moving away from their "Gothic" sound a more commercially viable sound. However, the band would frequently be refered to as a goth band from then on, despite frontman Robert Smith's objections.

Tracklist:

1. One Hundred Years
2. A Short Term Effect
3. The Hanging Garden
4. Siamese Twins
5. The Figurehead
6. A Strange Day
7. Cold
8. Pornography

All songs written and composed by Robert Smith, Lol Tolhurst and Simon Gallup.
