"Indie artists pay tribute to the Cure on this outstanding compilation of cover tunes... this is a must for all Cure fans, and a worthy investment for those looking to see what all the fuss was about." - Jeffrey Sisk (The Daily News, NYC)
"These tribute albums have become so ubiquitous and are so generally asinine that this one comes as a genuine, and at times quite moving, surprise. It's not just that the artists who contributed are clearly doing so without any of the usual ironic detachment, but also that many of them have clearly thought very carefully and often very insightfully about their arrangements and interpretations." - All Music Guide
"Just Like Heaven: A Tribute To The Cure is one of the best tribute albums I've ever heard. Instead of a blatant rip-off, Connecticut label American Laundromat Records has released a compilation offering classic Cure songs with a ton of unique indie flare." - Sheena Lyonnais (CHARTattack)
"Here's one of those tributes that manages to get some real talent… I dig Wedding Present doing "High" and Dean & Britta on "Friday I'm in Love"... and look at the effervescent sweetness The Brunettes use to transform blockbuster hit "Lovesong." Great!!! More than previous Cure tributes, Robert Smith ought to be intensely proud of this." - Jack Rabid (The Big Takeover)
"Who knew that a modest label in Connecticut would be releasing one of the best tribute albums ever? Indie darlings past and present come together to repaint the mood swinging lyrics and remix the eternal sunshine of The Cure hits." - Something To Sing About (Music Blog) |
