Query: I tried...but I gave up

I have to agree with all of the negative reviews of this album. It just lacks the 'edge' that other albums from The Cure seem to have.Music-wise, it's a good album. The band is definitely in form on this release. But the songwriting is bland and at times uninspired.This was actually the third Cure album I bought, and I remember when I first listened to it, I didn't HATE it, but it simply didn't have the passion that such albums as Disintegration have.To me, Wild Mood Swings is, to Robert Smith, what 'Zwan' was to Billy Corgan. A collection of well-structured, but uninspired songs that are neither 'great' nor 'terrible'.2.5 stars.
