Two comments.. There’s a lot there that Red Laser didn’t recognise, and yes, I was a Cure fan. I’m not sure Disintegration is the greatest album ever as claimed by some cartoon characters, but it’s undoubtedly The Cure’s best. One of their best at least. Or one of my favourites anyway, what would I know.
