The Cure: Entreat Plus (180g) Vinyl 2LP

This Record Store Day 2012 release is pretty awesome. For Disintegration fans, Entreat (live recording from Wembley 1989) is an essential complement to the masterpiece. Disintegration is so well-produced (some may say over-produced), this stripped down version really cuts to the core of the black mascara and puffy high tops. Entreat has quite a discographic history (import-only release, released as bonus CD, RSD 2010 Euro-only release), but this marks the first time that it's been available in the US in its full 12 track glory, replicating Disintegration's tracklisting (the original Entreat only had 8 tracks).
