Robert Smith and nursery-ready melodies might the single most hit or miss combo I can think of rn (and those diva strings do not help lol)
also whoops *cloying, rather than crying (most apt typo ever made in a cure thread?)

I really rate the flow and variety - Nothing and Drone stop the album settling that bit too much

Album Rating: 4.0
thats kinda why i think nothing should be in the back half rather than towards the front. still really not sold on hitting it so early in the running
i think drone is in a spot where it sorta makes sense i just dont really like it lol

First listen you play the opener and I just felt I could predict the entire album…indeed more than half the album is exactly that.
But when the intro to Nothing came in the first time I sat back and went ‘ok then, not so predictable’ - I liked that. Obviously it helps I genuinely like it, and Drone too to a slightly lesser extent.

but that sorta also sets the impression of variation out of the gate higher than it actually is so you go through the whole album and youre like "huh i guess thats the only song like that", where positioning it later at least sorta justifies its singularity contextually a bit
+ swapping it with all i ever am gives a similar impression of "oh huh maybe idk where this album is going" since its the most rhythmic song on the album too, but that song is more uptempo so it feels like a more natural bridge early on into a fragile thing where nothing is so open and flowery that its almost too much of that too early idk
i seem to be alone (heh) on this but repeated jams havent really changed anything

the last one was in 2008... expecting "next ones" is a little optimistic, no?

This should be their last album going by theme/sound/aesthetic/quality and I don't mind it being their last album.

Smith said in last month's interview that they would be dropping another one next year.

My biggest quip with this record is I wish there were more hooks and riffs, but my god it more than makes up for that in terms of atmosphere, grandiose theatrics, and very fitting lyrics for a band near the end of their journey.

tiers are always album-relative and ratings are not

I'd think some albums on a 3.5 would struggle to ever get something you'd label 'S Tier' but you might be right.
