This album is hands-down one of the greatest full album listens of all time… Spellbinding and timeless body of work. If you love this, I HIGHLY encourage you to backtrack to their early 80s era. Their 2nd-4th albums (Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Pornography) are some of the most astounding post-punk/gothic rock albums of all time…

Desintegration, the song, is just a master piece ... its basically the tragedy of losing a love story to whatever you get addicted to ... "Through the eye of the needle it´s easier for me to get closer to heaven than ever feel hole again"... "now that I know that I´ll break into pieces, I´ll pull out my heart and feed it to anyone, crying for simpathy, crocodiles cry, for the love of the crowd and three cheers from everyone"...

I’ve been on a tear of watching people react to Cure albums, and so far yours has been the best I’ve seen to this album. You are into it and the words you use like “shimmering” and you GET their meaning (though Lovesong is one of my least favs from the album but I love them all). I am a person who bought this album when it came out with saved up lunch money, (I was 14) and every year it becomes richer and more layered and deeper. It’s a part of my soul now, and I love it when I see someone discover it and love it. And this isn’t even my favorite album by them. :)

The Cure has been my favorite band since I was a child. When Disintegration came out, I was a 15-year-old goth girl. I still remember the tears streaming down my face from how absolutely gorgeous the first song (Plainsong) was. The Same Deep Water as You also brought tears. Disintegration has a massive expanse of sound. It was a game-changing album at the time of it's release in 1989. I'm also very happy I got to see them in concert in 1989! All their albums from 1979 to 1992 are absolutely perfect gems, each uniquely distinct and a clear arc of Robert Smith's growth as a songwriter. So glad you've finally discovered them. They're the band that all other bands love and have influenced since the late 70's!

To me, this album is about getting older. Each day that passes is one day closer to death. Closedown, Last Dance, and the title track Disintegration are the most obvious to me with this theme. Robert Smith turned 30 when they were making this album and it was the realization that his youth is gone and the only thing that makes him feel young, fun, and whole again is his lover, which is basically what Lovesong is about.

Hey, I’m a huge fan of The Cure. I saw your video come up and I’ve never watched you before, but I just wanted to say I love your content and how you react to stuff. It’s nice to see people truly love and delve deep into music, especially with a record that requires that kind of dedication and passion like the Disintegration album. As for the song Disintegration, I think it’s about the breaking apart of oneself (glass breaking) and aging. The whole album holds similar themes to that in my opinion, but in different shades. “Pictures of You” feels nostalgic and wistful, “Fascination Street” feels intense and sinful (like you said), “The Same Deep Water As You” feels like a hopeless and desperate (and a little coercive) love song. “Prayers For Rain” feel as if the singer is pleading for passion and excitement in his life, saying their counterpart is “so stale it kills”. I think it’s about the existential crisis that comes with aging and feeling like you’ve lost the intensity and vibrancy in your life. I think you’re totally right on the song “Disintegration” being like a whole story, and I think it’s the perfect title track. There’s so much text painting in this album too. Everything is just so tasteful and perfect. It really does envelope you. Thank you so much for your video!! This was so cool and nice to watch :)

My first concert was the cure in 1992 when I was 13. I was In 7th grade at the time, and this jock kid used to pick me up and put me in the trash every day for having a picture of Robert smith in my locker. In the early 90’s it was a much bigger deal to be a dude who was a fan of a guy wearing makeup. I never took that photo down tho! If you wanna try another band in this vein, check out siouxsie and the banshees. I’d suggest the album juju to start. Robert even played guitar for them for a bit, and did a side project with their bassist called the glove.

Definitely not a happy album, haha. But one of the greatest of all time. I highly recommend that you look into/react to some other albums by The Cure. Based on your reactions here, I think you'd really enjoy Seventeen Seconds, Faith and Pornography. Those are kind of known as "the dark trilogy" of the Cure. While they also have some very poppy songs, such as Just Like Heaven (arguably the greatest pop-rock song of all time), Friday I'm in Love, Boys Don't Cry and Inbetween Days, they are most known for being icons to the goth community. Not just through their music (some of which can be considered gothic rock), but also for their visuals and sentiments. I can see why you possibly like Lullaby the least. It also took me some time to fully appreciate it. The "spiderman" within the lyrics is definitely not the superhero. Imagine it as a human sized spider monster that's trying to eat you. Like a sleep paralysis demon and you can't move. The song was allegedly inspired by a nightmare Robert had. So the entire atmosphere, the lyrics in it and the hauntingly whispered delivery all fit that really well.

Great time, some customers were like "lets get outta here", but surprising how many from different eras pricked up their ears and enquired what the tunes were and who it was.

A few random comments: Robert said Untitled was the key song on the album - reiterating the themes of failed communication and being overwhelmed by a sense of the futility of existence. (There's one infamous live recording of it where, in a very intoxicated state, he drops most of the lyrics and instead mumbles verses from his self-recriminatory epic Watching Me Fall.) Prayers For Rain is a metaphor for depression and the urge to commit suicide. Cue the next song... I've always interpreted The Same Deep Water... as a couple committing suicide by drowning but ending up in a cryogenically frozen state - hence the perpetual kiss. Disintegration (the song) - I can't find the reference online now, but it's been identified as a close rewrite of someone else's poem. Fascination Street is about scoring hallucinogenic drugs in New Orleans (not coincidentally, two years later their friendly-rivals The Mission released a more manic song on the same subject) Closedown is a song about world weariness and diminished emotional receptivity - surely another key song. Re: Lullaby and Lovesong - these might be rare instances where watching the video helps. It's clear that these songs are deadly serious - almost a decade later Robert could lose his composure onstage and be fighting back tears whilst singing Disintegration or Deep Water... (admittedly I'm thinking of certain gigs where he was obviously tripping and/or tipsy - then again he showed similar tendencies, sober, in 1981... ).
