That's how I wear my hair, and I'm in high school. Nobody but a select few gets what I'm inspired by. But the teachers know right away. "You look like Robert Smith," they say.
This is possibly one of the most important albums in the formation of early goth/post-punk.
In my oppinion it's about the things that drive everyone off a cliff. It's akin to Maggies Farm by Bob Dylan, but more 20 years after the fact.. In a Sussex, England kind of way. Also in a metaphysical sort of way, it's a societal, meltdown calculation. A prophecy that has already come true. So no worries. All over. Just enjoy.
Why must you call me a "fool" and then spell "your" incorrectly without even adding correct punctuation? Learning to capitalize works too.
I just said that I thought they didn't cover it, mind you, and she/he gave proof that they did. It'd be nice if STFU'd and kept your nose out of a comment left a WEEK ago.
Please for the love of teachers everywhere, if you want to survive youtube then learn how to fucking type a sentence and don't reply to comments that are opinionated.
i was on about the mind control one,but while where on the subject of slaughterhouses i dont find them amusing :P but i guess thats what the song might be about that or poetic death.
i feel ya...i'm letting your mind control persuade me to other ways of thinking right now....i just always felt hanging garden and dead animals on hooks were similar, though definitely not beautiful
irrelevant i know, but sinceits being disscused, there is an awesome clip i've seen of Robert giving a lesson how to put on lipstick [ i think it might be during the Cure tribute concert, that Marilyn Manson hosted and had acts like AFI play] anyway he just grabs it and says "this is how you do it kids" and smears it all over his face. lol
Seems like most bands look more "generic" towards the beginning, then settle into their image. Seems put on and unnecessary for some bands, but I think the makeup fit the Cure's image perfectly.
Shut up, thecurearethebest, your probably one of those fans who pay any attention to the music and only to the appearence of the band. Fuck all you stupid fangirls, and get out of youtube.
sandmanhater: how do you know that thecurearethebestdoesn't pay attention to the music?!! the reason that your girl DUMP YOU for a BETTER LOOKING GUY, deos not mean you are going to take over thecurearethebest, you NEEDS TO BE FUCK OUT of youtube are MORONS LIKE YOU LOL
I love the way he did his hair in 1982, I'd love to have my hair like that, though I would settle for Simon Gallup's signature hairstyle in circa 1984-5.:)
what the fuck goes on in Robert's genius sad mind? I bet its a whole new mysterious world only he can enter possibly the Hanging Garden lives in there. The Cure's music is very beautiful with lyrics so dark I always get chills down my spine whenever I listen to an album like Pornography.
Creatures kissing in the rain / Shapeless in the dark again / In the hanging garden / Please don't speak / In the hanging garden / No one sleeps... What an awesome song from a phenomenal album...check out the live trilogy DVD set by The Cure...includes every song from my faves: Pornography and Disintegration.
woah, this really really sounds like something out of new orders first album movement. and joy division ish i might add. ive recently been taking up the cure and its just amazing.
It's one of Robert's nightmares, but I couldn't tell you exactly what it means; he is the only one who knows precisely. It's about death, deceit and violence, I think. :(
i love this band,those where the days.

AFI does some nice covers, but very few stand out, IMO. I mean, they're generally OK, but nothign impressive.
Exceptions are Jack the Ripper, which is a great accoustic cover, and Ziggy Stardust, where Davey shows he cannot quite pull off Bowie's voice.
