Entertainment Reviews:

Rolling Stone - p.79

4 stars out of 5 - "[T]his goth milestone brings the heaviness of metal without its clich‚s. Smith wails, guitars blare and drums pound in an echo-laden maelstrom of decay and loathing..."

Spin - p.102

"Where all aspiring new-wavers go to study enunciation."

Spin - p.109

"[A] druggy steel-cage match between death-disco drums and tarnished hooks that's somehow still fun to shimmy to."

Q - 12/99, p.171

Included in Q Magazine's Best Gothic Albums Of All Time - "...something uniquely, irresistibly nasty....It made sense of the abject horror of those mock A levels."

Uncut - p.124

5 stars out of 5 - "Smith's unearthed demos and live tracks from this period do not prepare you for the pure shock and awe of PORNOGRAPHY. Even today, nothing can."

NME (Magazine) - 8/12/00, p.29

Ranked #24 in The NME "Top 30 Heartbreak Albums" - "...Fueled by LSD, [it] is a dense, unrelenting wall of ugly noise..."
Paste (magazine) - "The Cure allowed their deep drug and alcohol abuse feed into the seamy tone and the lyrical themes of depression and personal anguish..."
