The Cure – Faith 1981

Faith is the third studio album by English rock band the Cure, released on 14 April 1981 by Fiction Records. The album saw the band continuing in the gloomy vein of their previous album Seventeen Seconds (1980), which would conclude with their next album Pornography (1982).

Preceded by the single “Primary”, the album was well-received by critics and was a commercial success in the UK, peaking at number fourteen on the UK Albums Chart and staying on the chart for eight weeks.

For me it was difficult choice “17 seconds” Album which contains my all time favourite Cure track “The Forest” however I feel this is a more mature album ?
