Query: Please Don't Use Records as Therapy

I'm a big fan of The Cure. They have made a lot of great records, but I'm sorry to some of the other reviewers, I didn't think this was one of them. It starts out with a hopeless rant about being lost(no real music involved) that is funny the first time, but hardly enjoyable to listen to a second time. The album then at least attempts to be musical. Unfortunately the songs are just drab and mediocre. Mr. Smith seems to have used the process of writing and recording these songs as some kind of self therapy. I really don't care about some horrible breakup with a woman he insists on telling me about in detail.I do like two songs including The End Of The World. I give the album only one star because after several honest tries to appreciate the album I've decided it was a waste of money and I don't care to have it in my collection. It has to be that bad to get only one star from me. I'd advise others not to waste their money on this one.
