    Bands like the smiths?

    The Smiths: The only ones who really sound much like them is Gene, and to an extent James. Dubstar reminds you of them for reasons that are not entirely Clear.

    Bands you can't "get"

    I like them both, although I think The Smiths are in a completely different league. And I agree, I don't see any essential similarity between them at all. Lyrically, the Cure is vague, inwardly emotional and pictorial. Perhaps it is not coincidental that Robert Smith's best lyrics basically...

    Sleaford Mods - old rage for a new age

    Converted to The cure

    Well, their first album was great, their next two much more uneven, then there were two very strong releases in Pornography and Japanese Whispers, followed by two much weaker ones before they rose to their final moment of eclectic glory with "Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me". I know a lot of people...

    Your Top ten songs: The 90s

    Your top ten songs: The 80s

    Cameo! That's not a name I expected to see around here. :) Mind you, I loved them at the time (although less so now). But I might have chosen "She's Strange" or "Single Life" over "Word Up".

    Your top ten songs: The 70s

    Home alone and having put the kid to bed, I've been passing the time using my general favorites spotify list to create a top ten songs playlist by decade. Actually rather fun to see what you end up with when forced to pare it down to ten songs. I thought maybe that could be a point of departure...
