Recorded in the south of France, it moves from gothic darkness to giddy pop to funk-flavoured experiments, sometimes within a few songs of each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJust Like Heaven is the jewel, a dizzy rush of love and memory with one of the most beautiful guitar lines of the decade. Why Can't I Be You? bounces with brassy, jittery fun, while Catch drifts by on a sweet, almost lullaby-like melody. The Kiss opens the album with a long, howling guitar storm that serves as a warning that nothing here will be predictable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross seventeen tracks, it manages to be wildly varied while still sounding like one band with a single, stubborn vision. It also became their breakthrough in America, opening the door to the success that followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans who love both The Cure's shadows and their sunshine, this is the album where the two meet most gloriously.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57478955139377,"sku":"602498400814","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/1200x1200bb_0b79aa74-a76b-4221-be9a-144ff57481ac.jpg?v=1794395997","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/the-cure-kiss-me-kiss-me-kiss-me-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
