Cure Reissues "The Trinity"
Ahh, this is what I've been waiting for!
The Three Imaginary Boys Reissue was nice (the extras were hit or miss), but Seventeen Seconds and Pornography were really the albums that made me love The Cure.
Sorry for the long post, but I think a couple of people on the blog will be interested in the full details. C'mon April...

1 Comments:
The term was originally applied to 17 sec, faith and pornography, due to the similarly dark sound across all three albums. Their next singles and albums would explore a decidedly pop sound, thus cementing these three albums as the Trinity Phase.
Since the Bloodflowers album was supposidely a "return to form" they reapplied the label to the three albums you referenced. I still want to watch that concert, hint, hint...
