In my opinion, "The Head On The Door" is one of the most beautiful albums of the Cure, and of all alternative rock mixed with dark / goth rock and new wave.
Songs like "In Between Days", "The Blood" and "Close To Me", best represent this essence, and although 25 years have passed since its publication, the feeling remains the same. A great album for a great band.
