On this day in music history: May 3, 1982 - “Pornography”, the fourth studio album by The Cure is released. Produced by Phil Thornalley and The Cure, it is recorded at RAK Studio One in London from January - February 1982. Part three in a trilogy of albums that includes “Seventeen Seconds” and “Faith”, it will be a career defining release for the band, and a high water mark for the goth music genre and subculture. Much of the material will be written and recorded while The Cure is in a state of flux, though it will become their most successful album to date in the UK and broaden their cult following in the US. “Pornography” will peak at #8 on the UK album chart.

I’m sorry but DAVID MOTHER FUCKING BYRNE WITH A MOTHER FUCKING PIPE.
Carry on.
He’s looking very Einsteinian with that overshirt and those books behind him.

Happy 20th birthday, Wish.
Happy 53rd birthday to one of the biggest influences on my life, Mr. Robert James Smith.
