Thoughts

I’ve listened to one The Cure album before but not for a while, and this, an unexpected brand new album, was a surprise. It’s great! Unlike the Bastille album of a couple of weeks ago, in which I said you’d do well to sit down and listen to it intently, this one feels very much designed not for hardcore listening but for pleasant background music - in the best possible way. There’s plenty of instrumental in there, and drawn out songs without being noodly and self-indulgent. I really liked it.
