ive only seen the cure once-back in 1978 in a town hall thing,they were good i thought,from first impressions,and not at all depressing i thought-
 
as for the smiths,ive never seen them live,but generally find there music tounge in cheek,there amusing,bit like bauhaus,there dark and brooding but i find them funny ;D
 
milindafgrant ps of course bauhaus are fantastic as well as funny ;P

I suppose I should've said I don't find their best work depressing or miserable - it fires me up!

First time I saw the cure was backing up Generation X. I found it a bit dull for the occassion, but liked the releases I heard. I saw them again Pornography era, and thought they were great. It is my favourite album of theirs. I got bored soon after. I wouldn't necessarily call some of the Cure's work 'sad'. Depressing maybe, like Scott Walker, who I can only take in VERY small doses. ;)

No no no!  [fingers in ears, not listening]  :-(   
 
I love Bloodflowers on Trilogy.  Thought the three went bloody great together.
 
And they were awesome live last year.  I still love them.
 
(Admittedly, my tastes are often questionable…)

I think you're right :(

 

I have that Trilogy dvd with the Bloodflowers album on it - what utter shite. Incredibly, they do a great job of Pornography & Disintegration. To say that Buttflowers is part of that cannon is rubbish. Did you see them on Jonathan Toss the other week? They were fucking AWFUL!!! Shit tune & the band were as loose as a baggy flange. Such a disappointment, they should be kicking ass in these days of post-punk reappraisal, but they've totally missed the boat. I don't think they know how to be brooding & intense anymore. Major influence on me, hence my obvious bitterness!

They’re not going to make a good one again, are they ?
I lost interest after Disintegration – really didn’t like the ‘We’ve 
always had a dance element to our music’ remix album.
 
Occasionally I’ve tried to get back into them, I bought Bloodflowers 
Which I thought was rather dull. I tried that one that was produced
By the bloke who produced Slipknot – that one was REALLY shite !!
I also bought 4.13 Dream a few weeks ago – kind of a last attempt, 
but having listened to it a few times I have to say it sounds pretty tepid 
too, sadly :o( .
