Free Music Review: It's Only Logical That This Album Should Follow Pornography
Hit: 5 Stars
Up to this point in the Cure discography if you haven't thrust yourself from this mortal coil due to the bleak collection of albums before this one, congratulations here's your prize. Japanese Whispers is about the closest thing I've heard to The Cure tampering with Synth Pop techniques, and I have to say I'm saddened that they never really did an album like it again. Although this album consists of only eight songs clocking in at just over a half an hour, it's one of the best collections of songs used seamlessly to fit the eerie mood conveyed by this album, and you'll definitely appreciate this if you're into the more artsy, "out-there", and eccentric side of The Cure. I liken this album to The Cure's "Head on the Door" LP, as it's really a work apart from aetypical Cure albums. Albums like "Japanese Whispers" and "Head on the Door" are examples of one thing that drives me crazy about The Cure, how they go on musical tangents on certain albums, making something incredibly unique, but then you realize it was a phase and chances are you'll end up getting a slew of "Wild Mood Swings" before getting anything else worth a damn. I'm starting to rant about WMS again...Where was I? Japanese Whispers is one of the best Cure albums on the market, and I highly recommend getting it and "Head on the Door" to hear two very different directions that The Cure went in around a small period of time.Key Songs: Let's Go To Bed, Lament, The LoveCats
