When one of my friends asked me to rate The Cure's new album, "Songs of a Lost World," in comparison to the rest of their catalogue, it seemed like a simple enough question and I almost flippantly answered it on the spot. After a moment of thinking about it however I realized that doing the topic justice would require not only sorting through over forty years of music history, but even defining "what is a Cure album" in the first place; and in that instant, the project I'm sharing here was born.
I'm going to rank and briefly discuss every album by The Cure, from worst to first. This will include two compilation releases that contain significant amounts of otherwise unreleased material, but won't include live albums or greatest hits releases. To help new listeners explore this amazing group, I'll also share my three to five favorite tracks off each record, depending on the quality of the release; and because I'm a completest nerd, I'll throw in a singles B-Side track where appropriate.
When all is said and done, we'll talk about a staggering fifteen albums, and seventy-one tracks. My plan is to stretch this out so that folks can listen to the chosen songs as they read along; and because I'm never *not* up for a tour through my favorite band's discography, I'll be listening along with you. This passion project is a sort of writing therapy for me and it's going to take some time to post; if that appeals to you, welcome aboard. If not you might wanna mute me for the next 9 hours.
@jaythvv@infosec.exchange@AnarchoNinaWrites if i don't have to at least wait 8 hours for "17 seconds" to come around, I am going to be very disappointed! 
@jaythvv Lol, no comment.
