The tragically romantic and beautifully dark has always seem to have been Robert's thing... From the dark fears in "Three Imaginary Boys" (the song, not the...
every song you mention is good (well, i personally would think twice about 39, but that's endless discussion) but pop can be heartfelt. To wish impossible...
Emilio, don't feel that you're being annoying by discussing The Cure, after all, that's why we're here. Descent has been a bit quiet lately, so I'm happy that ...
for terrible pop as of late (as opposed to the perfect one of '87-ish) there's 'wild mood swings' -- for terrible gloom now it's drafted in the guy behind lame...
My favorite aspect of The Cure is the guitar, and Robert of course. I'm really getting tired of the electronica influences that they've been using lately and I...
i'd love some 70's punkish pop but that's completely impossible (though it would kick some green day's and aknf's asses, nothing against them). I completely...
Yes, it's quite a term of endearment among goths to call him "Fat Bob." This term even applies to Wish era Robert- at this time I don't think Robert is fat at ...
My two cents about the string quartet tribute: I listened to it only one time completely. The beginnings of most of the songs are nice because one is curious...

Michelle, You are ever so right. Pushing buttons on stage does not make for a nice concert. And yet, rock is over. Still, we don't expect the band to do the ...
