It's supposed to have 20 pages...the first batch only had 16.

I got my copy of the old Top in the mail today....and yep, the drumroll at the beginning is cut out partly in the remaster....Bananafishbones is also a different speed. Apparently it was on the wrong speed when they mastered the original release.

if anyone gets a chance buy or download "mixed". Its a bunch of remixes of their songs by them and they are fucking great. my favorite cure album!

You mean Mixed Up? I have a wall poster of that album. I made my own sequel called Mixeder Upper.

I'm listening to The Cure right now...

over and over we die, one after the other

I still can't believe The Cure are a West Sussex band. I live in a town down the road from Crawley, where the band originated.

I like "Faith" the best.

It's all about Seventeen Seconds.

I lost touch with The Cure from Wild Mood Swings Onward. Bloodflowers was the last album I picked up by them, and that was a decade ago.

You haven't missed much. The self-titled was a mess. The last one had some redeeming moments but the misses outnumbered the hits by a pretty vast ratio.

Their self-titled record had some decent stuff but wasn't anything special. Their most recent one I liked even less.

Disintegration though is a masterpiece so I've been waiting for this deluxe edition for a long time.

bloodflowers is disgustingly underrated

I agree. Probably my favorite behind Disintegration and Pornography.

Bloodflowers was great.

but the Cure is dead.
