Ross (3284 KP) rated Disintegration by The Cure in Music
May 18, 2020
Rolling Stone's 326th greatest album of all time
One of my biggest regrets in life is how long it took me to get in to The Cure. A couple of years ago, my only knowledge of them was Boys Don't Cry, Love Cats and Friday I'm In Love. This album is poles apart from that material and is absolutely superb. From start to finish it is an absolute joy, Pictures of You, Fascination Street and Prayers for Rain are all excellent but for me it is the title track that steals the show - such a slow build up to an epic powerful finish, I always have to go back and listen again.

Slim-line Hollywood epic is strong on rousing action, less so on historical authenticity. Separated-long-before-birth siblings Kirk Douglas and Tony Curtis rip chunks out of each other while drinking, raiding, pillaging and taking an interest in Janet Leigh.
Basically the silliest sort of Hollywood camp, with dialogue like 'Love and hate are two horns on the same goat!', but the photography and score do occasionally combine to produce something rather stirring. It occasionally has a rather harder, darker edge than you'd expect (there's quite a lot of mutilation in the script), but not that much more than Ben Hur. The combined wattage of the various stars keeps it watchably entertaining.
