Pros: The beginning of something beautiful Cons: More imperfect than most
--------------- To celebrate the forthcoming release of The Cures b-sides on a four disc box-set, Join the Dots, Ive decided to spend a couple of weeks wallowing in the music of one of my favourite bands. Feel like joining in ...
Pros: Short, concise pop gems. Excellent skills for a band under age 20. Cons: None really, unless you need to be obsessively Goth.
Boys Don't Cry is The Cure's first album. It is actually a repackaging of their first record, Three Imaginary Boys. TIB was released in the U.K. in 1979 and the track listing varies from Boys Don't Cry. On TIB, the bands first three singles were not ...
Pros: The Cure at the beggining and at the peak Cons: Nothing
THE CURE Boys Don't Cry Elektra Records 1980 The '80s were a very good time for the Cure. It was the beginning of their career but it was also the ultimate period of their career. It is the time that made Robert Smith a musical icon. During this tim ...
Pros: The uniqueness of the band Cons: The order of the songs and some songs could be misinterpreted

Pros: Punchy aggressiveness + catchy virtuosity + sonic fidelity = one damn good record Cons: If you are a fan of Top 40 banality you will probably hate this record

Pros: the cure started out perfectly with Boys don't cry... Cons: none
When I was in junior high school, I wasn't really into music at all. Living in Connecticut, the only radio stations available were KISS stations (playing ultra pop songs), country, and metal; which I could not stand. I started to listen to the Dr....
Pros: Fun, post punk recording, great from beginning to end Cons: You won't enjoy this if you think the Cure is just dark, dank and dismal all the time...
I know this LP isn't Robert Smith's favorite. In fact, I know he dislikes it very much. In many interviews, he has said he wished he never had recorded it. But I like "Boys Don't Cry." It is one of those endearing recordings you can listen to...
