Title: "Kiss"-ing to Be Clever.
Product review: This is the Cure's first studio album since winning over American audiences with their "Staring at the Sea" compilation. Originally released as a double album before omitting "Hey You" to fit the material on a single disc, "Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me" is a slice of pop at its most thrilling. There's the gloomy and spiteful sting of "The Kiss," the bubbly punch of the hit "Just Like Heaven," and the innocent love song "Why Can't I Be You." Robert Smith glides through a range of emotions throughout this album: infatuated, detached, angry, smitten, and gloomy; but the whole disc works consistently and never tires. The Cure have struggled to retain their audience within recent years, but you can always turn to this disc to see this band at one of the peaks of their enduring career.
