13) Faith (1981)

If what you like about The Cure is the way they inspired the Goth and Shoegaze music scenes, ranking Faith this low will seem like sacrilege, and I'm more fond of this album than the previous two. Despite this, what I like about The Cure is the way they seamlessly craft pop hooks into moody, dramatic music and Faith is devoid of the playfulness the band showcases in later work. Also the production buries one of The Cure's best assets in Smith's vocals.
