Pornography

Released 1982Alternative & Indie
Essential

A bleak, claustrophobic goth landmark of despair. Dark and acclaimed. A pivotal record. Released in 1982, it's a key entry in The Cure's run.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
