"I think The Cure is the best progressive rock band ever...talented, surprisingly and infinitley kick ass. However there have been some really bad Cure tributes. The best one's in order are This one, A Night Like... and 100 tears....This Cure tribute is the most varied and almost every song version on here is enjoyable. The cover's of The Walk, To The Sky, and All Cats are Grey are simpley awesome...A must get!"
Heavenly to the ears

"This cd is quite good, definatly not the worst cure tribute out there. The tributes to "To the Sky" and "Burn" was nice, you don't always get these song choices on a tribute. Good luck to the creator of failure to communicate records. I will be looking forward to the new tributes that are coming...Joy Division, David Bowie and :) Nick Cave!"

"Lots of good songs on here, including stripped down covers by Voltaire and Hearts Fail . . . at least 3/4 of the rest of the songs are pretty good, too."
"Strange" is good.

"This CD isn't only the best Cure tribute out there, it is one of the best mixes of ANY tribute album I've eer heard. It covers every cool type of music you can think of. The Voltaire track is awesome. Then there's these tracks by Jupiter Blue and Egostatic that just rock so hard. Yes, a Cure tribute that ROCKS HARD. The the digipack artwork is a nice touch. A lot of time and effort went into this one, unlike Cleopatra'a "100 Tears." This CD hasn't left my stereo since I bought it. I totally recomend it."

"This is one of the few Cure tribute albums that I didn't like. The album cover should have been a dead give away, the Robert Smith wannabe is staring at the sea wearing a black suit and "NIKE's". Yes... #$#@ing NIKE's!!! Onto the actual songs, I was rather let down. With 17 songs, you'd figure the law of probability would dictate a few tracks would be likeable. Perhaps there are two tracks at best I would recommend such as 'The Drowning Man', and 'The Figurehead'. If you are looking for a decent tribute album, I would recommend 'A Fictional Tribute', or 'A Night Like This' tribute."
