WarU2

Rated 4/10

Pleasently surprised at times, but overall a very mixed bag, a standout from their early post-punk years, but U2 have always been a playlist band instead of an album band for me, War was unfortunately not good enough to change that for me, also the mixing is abysmal at times, with drum sounds flat enough to pull me entirely out of the song.

1) Like A Song
2) New Years Day
3) Sunday Bloody Sunday

Least Favourite: Surrender

PornographyThe Cure

Rated 10/10

I came into pornography having already called it one of my favourite albums of all time, so it's a lovely treat to get to listen to it again. The drumming and reverbed out sound owes a LOT to Joy Division, but its perverted in a very Cure way. The album also sometimes veers into proto-industrial sounds that wouldn't sound out of place on a Throbbing Gristle Record. This is also the angriest Robert Smith has sounded on a record by The Cure up to this point (a sound that would be revisited in their much ignored 2000's output), which really adds to the dark, oppressive atmosphere of Pornography. Overall, I'm thoroughly glad I got to revisit this record.

1) The Hanging Garden
2) One Hundred Years
3) Cold

Least Favourite: NONE OF 'EM
