AnarchoNinaWritesAlthough this album represents a drastic musical departure from Disintegration, songs like To Wish Impossible Things demonstrate that The Cure are still masters of cinematic, slow burn melancholy. Presaging the fascination with strings Smith would embrace on the band's next album, this lament for a relationship that has already ended tragically retains a warmth and wistful quality not always present on the band's songs about love and loss. Heart-shatteringly beautiful.
