I admit I'm not as obsessed with the Cure nearly as much s I was as a young man but how come I've never heard of Airlock, the music or the film?!

I was quiet looking forward to it (airlock), but it is just drug-induced nonsence.... on a par with revolution 9 by the beatles... it doesn't even sound like it was fun to make though... just an exercise in tediousness, and I'd wager the film probably was too...I'm curious to see what Carnage Visors is like, but Airlock just sounds like pretentious art-wank experimentalism...
(but the rest of the bonus disc is really good!)

I found it amusing (but couldn't listen all the way thru)- nothing like anything I'd expect the cure to do. funny you mentioned the beatles- it reminded me of yoko ono.
what did you think of the packaging? I really liked the lyric sheets with the notations inside the cd case. I also like the simple design of all the remaster discs having unique colors (por.nography being black, of course!).

Yeah, the packing is excellent for them, especially Pornography! Like OJ said, each one compliments the mood of the album really well (apart from the weird colour picture on the front of the Faith booklet!)

well, i've been in a bad mood the past couple weeks (school-sick-waiting). i put on faith the other day and it hit me. like the perverbial ton of bricks. i'm taking back every unkind thing i've ever said about this album and i'm now officially claiming it as my favorite (sorry wish). i turned it up as loud as my cd player thingy goes, put on the headphones and just got lost in it. wow. i reallllly can't wait to hear it remastered. woah.

It's given me the excuse to play Faith and Pornography a lot recently. I don't think I could like those albums more than I already do. Faith is probably the more subtle of the two, Pornography just very lud and ugly and great.
I am currently off with stress, sitting around unshaven and in my underwear, but I suddenly feel uplifted and am going for a shave and a shower!

well, faith maybe... but I'm sure por.nography has caused some uplifting experiences somewhere...

finally!! they arrived yesterday. luckily, the cd's weren't broken, but the covers are totally mangled and bent, the plastic thingys that the cd's sit in are broken and cracked. it's kind of heart breaking actually. but who cares, they finally arrived! faith was amazing. i listened to it last night in bed. i feel asleep somewhere near the end of the drowning man cause i woke up hearing carnage visors (which was awesome!) i haven't listened to the bonus disc yet, but i did a quick sample and all i can say is the songs sound just adorable. this one is my fav remaster so far. 17 seconds was rad, the live stuff is always good. haven't listened to po.rnography yet, but i listened to some of the bonus stuff.
