Sealed 2021 2LP Heavy Weight Gatefold Reissue. Digitally Remastered From The Original Master Tapes By Robert Smith. First Time Ever On Double LP; Includes Lyric Bags. Originally Released In '89. "Expanding The Latent Arena Rock Sensibilities That Peppered Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me By Slowing Them Down And Stretching Them To The Breaking Point, The Cure Reached The Peak Of Their Popularity With The Crawling, Darkly Seductive Disintegration. It's A Hypnotic, Mesmerizing Record, Comprised Almost Entirely Of Epics Like The Soaring, Icy "Pictures Of You." The Handful Of Pop Songs, Like The Concise And Utterly Charming "Love Song," Don't Alleviate The Doom-Laden Atmosphere. The Cure's Gloomy Soundscapes Have Rarely Sounded So Alluring, However, And The Songs -- From The Pulsating, Ominous "Fascination Street" To The Eerie, String-Laced "Lullaby" -- Have Rarely Been So Well-Constructed And Memorable. It's Fitting That Disintegration Was Their Commercial Breakthrough, Since, In Many Ways, The Album Is The Culmination Of All The Musical Directions The Cure Were Pursuing Over The Course Of The '80s." AMG Review By Stephen Thomas Erlewine.
