5) Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me (1987)

Having mastered blending pop hooks into moody, gothic style music on their previous record, The Cure's seventh release would see them break into the American mainstream. An uneven, at times disjointed double album, Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me really feels like two separate records; one full of pop hits for radio consumption, and one darker eclectic mix for Cure purists. Both are excellent, but it was the pop tracks that won America's heart.
