The second album of the famous "Dark Trilogy". Faith is collection of atmosphere and moods. Not dark as most might say but grey and somber capped off by it's title track. It's a forshadowing to the anger and subtle rage that would come with "Pornography", the album along with the band's drug and alcohol use that caused the infamous brawl between Robert Smith and Simon Gallup.
Creepy as hell

This album ranges from a lot of dark themes. There is quite a bit of existentialism throughout the album. Somehow Robert Smith can make such happy sounding music out of such bleak subjects. He is truly a legend.
I've been looking for this for years!!!

I used to have this on cassette and I lost it. Carnage Visors is worth the price alone!!!
OMG, what a surprise...!

Not just a fantastic album, but when I scrolled down the list of song titles I found Carnage Visors. I used to listen to it in high school and just stare at the ceiling while swimming in the murk - LOL! It's a great mood piece. I could never find it on CD, but now it's on my I-pod as well as "Faith".
Heartbreaking, albeit triumphant.

The dirge-like lyrics and Smith's monochromatic vocal range make Faith a unique kind of depressing. Very well done.
The Most Depressing Album Ever Made

Despite a couple of rouge accounts that say Lou Reed's "Berlin"is the most depressing album ever made,the general flagship of musical doom and gloom is The Cure's "Pornography",a album so tainted even Robert Smith admits it's the most depressing album ever made.Which is why i believe that "Faith" is the most depressing."Pornography" is vivid,brooding,memorable."Faith"is none of those things.Where as the latter brings up shades bright scarlet,blinding white,and eternal pitch black,"Faith",like it's album cover,brings up one major overriding color:gray.Oh sure,"Primary","Other Voices",and"Doubt"may be just fast enough to bring about some musical hue or two,but the majority of this album quickly eliminates any of this,sucking them up in a cold,sterile,void.That's not to say that this piece of music is unbearable,in fact,this may the album of choice for many a lonely winter morning.Just take note that where at the end "Pornography",Smith assures you a sign of hope,"There must be a cure!",you won't get that here.The end of this album puts your listening fate all up to chance,"nothing left but faith..."
beautiful album

25 years later I'm an executive at a big company and still this is *the* album for me, the one i fell in love to, fell in love with, and return to for the memories. I guess I've met five or six people wildly different people in those same 25 years who felt the same way about "faith". Really, I think it's special, especially the title track.
Rainy. Contemplative. Questioning. A must-have.

This album shows its vinyl roots (in a good way). It unfolds in two chapters, one dark, rainy, and contemplative and the other much more bitter and questioning. Chapter one, with 4 strong A-side tracts, culminating in All Cats Are Grey and that perfect matter-of-fact somber and elegant keyboard outtro. Chapter 2, catharsis, death, and some sort of questioning dream-scape rebirth. A masterpiece perhaps.
