 Seems an appropriate time to rate this solid discography. Usual rules of one 11 and one -1 (not expecting to see any of these though..) allowed per album blah blah. Have just included the albums plus the Robert Smith version of 'Not in Love' – any more people want to add?  xx Untrust Us xx Alice Practice xx Crimewave xx Magic Spells xx Xxzxcuzx Me xx Air War xx Courtship Dating xx Good Time xx 1991 xx Vanished xx Knights xx Love and Caring xx Through the Hosiery xx Reckless xx Black Panther xx Tell Me What to Swallow  xx Fainting Spells xx Celestica xx Doe Deer xx Baptism xx Year of Silence xx Empathy xx Suffocation xx Violent Dreams xx Vietnam xx Birds xx Pap Smear xx Not in Love xx Intimate xx I Am Made of Chalk xx Not in Love (feat. Robert Smith)  xx Plague xx Kerosene xx Wrath of God xx Affection xx Pale Flesh xx Sad Eyes xx Insulin xx Transgender xx Violent Youth xx Telepath xx Mercenary xx Child I Will Hurt You |

Yes Tony, you definitely need to listen to III if you haven't yet! It's actually my favourite of the three, although there's not much to separate them as they're all great. I'd say it's III>I>II for me but that seems so wrong as I love II!

I think I'll give all of the albums a listen before I rate because a few songs are not as fresh in my memory as the others.

Relistening to the entire discography in one sit made me feel so stupidly emotional that Ethan + Alice are no more and we probably won't get anything as perfect as this from either of them separately.

I think you should go for the one that you heard first, then. Extra points for nostalgia
 . I love I and II equally, but it was II that got me into CC

Considering only two rates have been posted over the span of like 10 days, I think you're safe for at least a couple of weeks.

haha yeah I'll leave it going for a while, I need to do mine too. Aiming to get 10 or so rates at least?!
Hopefully people haven't done theirs yet because they're too busy reminding themselves of the albums.. |

hmm tricky. I'm tempted to say just one for each but no one likes a bore, so go for ittt.
Ha as for the album, III is my favourite but I can imagine you being more of a II kinda guy? |

I'd give Doe Deer and Plague my 11 as well if I could. But the three that got it in the end have a special place in my heart so there was no other way really.
It was so tough to rate thooooo. Still playing III occasionally. That first 7 tracks is just a PERFECT little sub-album. You don't even need to make a separate playlist for songs you want to listen to i'm so lazy |
