Nov 20, 2017 I really dont think so You shatter me your grip on me a hold on me So dull it kills You stifle me Infectious sense of Hopelessness and prayers for rain I suffocate I breathe in dirt And nowhere shines but desolate And drab the hours all spent on killing time Again all waiting for the rain You fracture me your hands on me a touch So plain so stale it kills You strangle me entangle me In hopelessness and prayers for rain I deteriorate, I live in dirt and nowhere glows but Drearily and tired the hours all spent on killing Time again all waiting for the rain
Nov 20, 2017 I think we both are on the same page that Disintegration is our favorite work from The Cure but I'd wager Pornography is even more depressing
Nov 20, 2017 Idk the soundscape of both albums makes disintegration more depressing cuz of the juxtaposition between smiths voice and the atmosphere within that album
Nov 20, 2017 Very well said m8, Pornography was the precursor for that heavenly sound/instrumentation that like you said got fed steroids and became Disintegration. The reason I find it more depressing was that it's lyrics are a lot more direct and Robert sounded more raw on it. I got another album that came to mind for this thread
Nov 20, 2017 Very point about the lyrics on Pornography, in those terms its definitely more depressing.
