the second time in England, I found this tape, which was the discovery for me.
two albums on one cassette FAITH/CARNAGE VISORS - Hudba

John frusciante sent me here
Michael Jackson sent me here whit a beer
Same 🙂
He's a ballbag
Yup
Me too ❤
Thanks John Frusciante... love the cure, never heard this without him sending me here!
He has been quoted as saying this was the song that inspired Californication (song)
“I was listening to this song, it was a 25-minute long instrumental. If you listen to it, it sounds exactly like ‘Californication’. They’re just different notes, but it’s the same rhythm, same kind of feeling.”
It's interesting to hear the original demo for the song (it's on CZcams) and it sounds like reggae almost... then the final version, how it came out.... because JF was listening to this track...... pretty awesome!
alot of part sounds like californication live jams :)
That's how I came here
johns influences have massively influenced me in turn. the way he's never afraid to just admit that a song was massively influenced by another artist is very admirable to me. by the way and it's huge beegees influence was a big reason i got into the beegees.
You'd probably like the album Faith.
Robert Smith è The cure sono dei geni assoluti
Now THIS is how musicians should be inspired. Completely 100% different from Californication, yet the lick is almost the same. Brilliant, both tracks.
I went to England in the late 80s to visit my brother who was studying abroad there at the time. I made a point of searching in music stores for anything I could find from The Cure there, anything that you couldn't find in the states then. (Remember, there was no WWW or easy way then to search for obscure songs or titles from your favorite bands in the UK.) I came across this Carnage Visors cassette, I listened to it on my walkman (!) on the flight back, and it blew my freakin' mind. I would listen to it at night while stargazing (I was an astronomy student in Arizona), and it was just so perfect to trance out to.
That was over 30 years ago. It's still perfect.
🖤🖤
Love this story. ❤️
I am rediscovering all the songs from this amazing band and they really are out of time : Smith, with his crew or without them, is a genius
I believe I got this tape at a record store called Turtles back in the mid 80s. I was so amped because it was a special order from the UK and the anticipation of having an album that none of my friends has was exciting. You would wait for that blessed call to say your album arrived! Life was so much more meaningful with all the obstacles of not having instant gratification. However, so glad to have access to it now whenever I’d like. This was my art music, playing in the background as I’d draw…cheers to all
Amazing story. I’m here listening to it in my vehicle after midnight, camping out in my car. My son is sleeping and I have insomnia.
They had no support band during their Faith tour, instead they had a big screen showing this way out animation, this was the soundtrack to it, I still have fond memories of that night, great gig, great night.
Yes, I saw this show in Aachen / Germany. Great experience...
I wish there was complete video footage of this film available for us to see now...
Crystal Ballroom , Seaveiw Hotel , St Kilda , Australia
I would have loved to have been old enough to have seen them then! But, I've seen them 43 times now, so I'm not going to worry about it too much!
Cool! Wouldve been incredible to go to an 80s gig. What song did they open with? And what is the Carnage Visors film like?
Back in 1990, this piece of music once hypnotised my cat. I was listening to it in my bedroom when my cat, Egypt, came in and hopped up on my bed to chill. I stepped out of my room but left the piece playing. I came back in several minutes later, and she was lying on my bed Sphynx style, facing my Yorx stereo, eyes fixated on the pulsing power indicator "thump" lights. When it was over, I waved my hands in front of her face a few tymes. Nothing. Finally I called her name with a clap of my hands, and it about scared her beside herself. LOL.
Was it a grey cat? 😏
@@frenchoid6387 HA!
Calico.
That is freaking awesome!!
@@frenchoid6387 because all cats are grey!
My cat stands in the same hypno fashion in front of my amp during rehearsals... I think he likes the excess of reverb and fuzz... Guess it´s catlike sound...
I listened to this falling asleep for years as a little boy .
That bass... 😎💜
i bought 'Faith' double cassette version of this in 1981 for my walkman as a teenager this was an absolute goldmine. A double cassette!!!.. pure beauty in post-punk dystopia north england. Mogwai have taken this to a new level, but The Cure/ Joy Division started the beauty
I had the tape too! I played it over and over and it eventually succumbed to my tape player. It was gold!
One of the most underrated pieces of music. I used to listen this in high school in the 90s walking in the woods where grew up. Some great music.
First time hearing this song and I'm now 49. Makes me want to pick up the guitar again and create because listening to this, gives me confidence.
@Linda Niemkiewicz I just did again! Heard this 38 years ago however. Good tune
I'm 52 Years Old Now.......
The Cure Is My Life.
1982 - 2021.
👁👁👁
Me too and I m 52
I'm 49 too and I didn't know this song
Make Robert proud!
musica que inspirou Frusciante a compor Californication....
Ent não sou o único br que viu kkkkk
@@arrogantt_ tb vii.. e eu AMO as duas bandas! Mas n consigo ver semelhança alguma.. talvez pq n entenda nada de guitarra kkk
@@laviniamonte8640 acredito que o que realmente influenciou foi a parte rítmica e o compasso musical
@@TheCarlosluz123 Ss é o ritmo de Californication o riffzinho cm 5 notas ali, o John usou o msm ritmo só q com 4 notas.
@@laviniamonte8640 um conceito em música chamado "motivo". Frusciante estava ouvindo essa música na época e captou o motivo de 4 notas dessa música do The cure. Motivos são pequenas ideias rítmicas ou melódicas que se destacam ao longo de uma música ou trecho musical. Nessa música ele extraiu o ritmo apenas. O famoso 'ta na na nann' do californication em lá menor.
Takes me back 30 years. Stoned, relaxed, drifting................
I feel you! I haven’t listened to this in years, but I was given some mushrooms tonight (not too much) and just had a wonderful half hour.
My second ever gig was seeing the cure on the faith tour. The film “carnage visors”, with this amazing soundtrack, and the following live performance by the band, completely fried my impressionable brain. Still one of my best gigs I’ve ever. (I was spoilt early on, mind, as my first five gigs were buzzcocks, joy division, the cure, the undertones and the stranglers!)
czcams.com/video/HWDURMU5Kv8/video.html
Damn, you WERE spoilt! Fantastic lineup.
Never get bored with this eerily beautiful soundtrack. I saw the Cure live only once in 1981 on the Faith tour and they showed the Carnage Visors film instead of a support act.
So did I! I'm very sorry there isn't any copy of the film... It was very mesmerizing
@@242Batman There is a copy now on CZcams someone recorded on tape.
czcams.com/video/HWDURMU5Kv8/video.html
Ha! Me, too. At Portsmouth Guildhall.
when the good times were still with us...
I bought this on tape in 1981...Still my favourite band ever.
I LOVE this. A whole half an hour of an instrumental with the same atmosphere of Faith. :) Oh YES.
This is much better than Faith.
"This is much better than Faith." Disagree.
Faith is such a good album. 🖤
This was a soundtrack for a short film by Ric Gallup (Simons brother). It was used in place of a support band on the 1981 Picture Tour. The film has since disappeared and only Smith, Lol Tolhurst and Simon Gallup own copies of it. I used to have this track on tape as a B-Side to Faith. I have never seen it since. Great track, one of my Favourites.
@@mistermayonaise Brilliant, thank you!
My brother had that tape with a whole side being this song, I dubbed it and still have the copy. It always sounded so muffled so hearing it now is really amazing. This track influenced what I thought music should be, not everything needs to be 3 minutes and have vocals.
I’ve got the Faith/Carnage Visors cassette. Found it in a consignment shop for $2
I used to have the button! I wore it on everything! I had it for 20 years, of course, an ex girlfriend stole it. Fitting.

The Cure’s first few albums along with Southern Death Cult through Dreamtime is what really got me immersed into post-punk. I don’t listen to it nearly as much as I used to (I became really enamored with it while I was tracking down an EP by Deep Blue Dream) but it was really influential on my guitar playing and songwriting as a whole. Robert Smith doesn’t really get as much credit as he deserves in that department as far as I’m concerned. He was incredibly proficient at creating these lush soundscapes from a minimalistic perspective and that’s what made those early records so haunting yet beautiful. A really talented songwriter all around, and a very excellent rhythm guitarist too. I wish the band hadn’t been pressured into slowing down the tracks on the first album. The difference between those and the same songs as heard on the Peel Sessions is immediately noticeable, as is with the live performances from those days. And the tracks like these were every bit as atmospheric. Easily one of the best bands from the 80’s.
It doesn't get better than early Cult. They were untouchable in the mid 80's.
Easily!
A collection of The Cure's instrumental compositions: it's like discovering the Tenth Symphony of Beethoven... all these pieces are as fascinating as their songs.If Edgar Allan Poe lived in this time, he would probably write listening to these album.
this song captures so many emotions at a time, one of the best ever intrumental songs ... the bass, the guitar, percussions ... gosh, it´s awesome
Im here, because a jhon frusciante interview, i was a poser fan of the cure in 2015, i had only two disc of the cure. I fuckig love this, and i hate it to.
there is so many fealings that can came out for a simple melody.
remember listening to this on tape for hours. it still hypnotizes me.. and now I can listen at work :)
me too; it was in in '85, there is some time ago now ^^
This is my go to track for when I've been awake for 72hrs, dehydrated, everyone is passed out drunk in Bros basement and I'm just patiently waiting for his sister to make an appearance.
Friends sister - "Hey oh my God I can't believe you're still awake you should really just crash here".
Me - "They say if you understand and follow the path of Hinduism, that you understand the origin of this universe and how it was created. After all, Hinduism is just the study of Vibration and how it effects matter". /And that's how I got laid to this song.
@@WuPongPingPPing well done mate
@@pierlaurenzi Thanks brother
I attended the June 1981 concert in Harderwijk, Netherlands. The ‘support act’ was absolutely astonishing. I never bought the tape of ‘Faith’ (got the vinyl) so I never heard it back until a few days ago. Being able to hear it again makes me a happy man. Fan since 1980 or so, and The Cure is still one of my favorites. Good luck, all of you.
czcams.com/video/HWDURMU5Kv8/video.html
This is why they are my favorite band. Enchanting 🌹
No telling how many times I've listened to this over the years
OMG...what the F is it about this piece that draws you back, again and again again...
Hundreds for me. Just put it on loop and then stop it when I was up ~9 hours later.
Ive been acure fanatic since iwas in fifth freaking grade 84,85 the very first time I had heard from them iwas hooked im fifty now😂❤them rock royalty!
hello to every soul on this earth listening to the divine sound of Cure!!! so nice to to so many people liking this music... Robert was the most talented musician from 1979 to 1984 then things changed.... but carnage visors is a part of us now such as siamise twins or the drowning man or m and so many others... God bless you Robert
An astute and inspired observation....and so very true...good call...
@@_lmagine neither had THOD or KMKMKM!!!!

This is why I have my Bass VI.
Same & Jet Harris.
I used to have a 1963. Used to. 😩
One more reason I loved buying Cure cassettes - the extras!! This, Concert & Curiosity, the b-sides on Standing on a Beach, extra songs on Mixed Up & Disintegration & Kiss Me x3...the more the better. This is a good song to relax or fall asleep to as well...
Fall asleep? Really? or stay awake all night "shivering in bed". What a lullaby!
Obra prima del post punk y el goth, The Cure siempre vigentes!
Ricorda un gruppo dark italiano❤
Among the greatest measures of an artist is the ability to harness restraint.
Well said.
The first time I heard this, I knew I wasn't alone. Some say the difference between insanity and genius (for artists) is success.
It's tough for some artistic people.
I sat down to sip a cup of coffee and did not get up again for nearly 30 minutes. Thank you .
Complete random , but it´s amazing how things you´ve listened to as a kid stay tattoed in your brain for life . it´s been some 30 years since I lasr listened to this , maybe more , and it all feels so familiar as if I had listened to it yesterday . This is some amazing stuff , pretty much like everything they did in the late 70s/80s .
I'm a Cure fan since 1985. I never knew.
Same.
Theres just something about The Cure..
fuck illuminati
Sebastian Farrugia Yes there is mate,,,they are just bloody amazing!!!!!!!
@@israhelldid9119 It's a brand called Welcome Skateboards, nothing to do with illuminati lol
I've been a fan since 1987 and I must say they are absolutely THE BEST!!!!!
11/15/2020 and STILL sounds amazing!!!!!
Same!
2023
Learning of this songs existence after so many years is like a great gift.
Going deeper and deeper into a cave
I still have my copy of this - very rare!
This was the same piece that inspired the guitarist, John Frusciante, to write Californication by the Red Hot Chili Peppers
Wrong. It inspired him to change the riff to the same rhythm cos they were stuck with a sub par song and riff. He converted the riff to this timing
@@jonny401 Wrong. To quote John, "we had this reggae piece that was not fitting, so I was listening to this and used the same notes to write Californication".. If you listen to the original reggae version, what you are saying makes it sound like you currently suffer from a drug addiction.
@@trenty6175 dumbass rewatch the interview and use your ears
when as a teenage u listen the cassette so many times on your way to school that one day u broke it and buy another one , eternal gem , sublime mise en forme du spleen
Oui, Oui et Oui...
Still my single favorite piece of music, I can just relax and enjoy this. It may be the song that convinced me to become a 'Goth' back in 1990.
This song was on the back side of a Faith cassette I purchased around '93 or so. An ignorant teenager, I thought it was a part of the original Faith album. I put it on to go to sleep and my Mom came to my room and yelled at me to turn the music down...lol
2018 and listening to this wonderful track at work...
I actually saw this 'support act' movie as a kid in 1981 at one of their 'circus tent' concerts in the Netherlands. Loved it! Have listened to the cassette soo many times. I'm glad they released it on cd a few years ago, it's so good.

From today, my favorite The Cure's music.
my first time hearing this...and I've been a fan since 89... i love it.
+Skrab Yup
thank you for the comment
greets annevreni
And thank you for posting this great song.....cheers!🍺🍻🍷🍸🍰

A truly masterpiece and a genius move to put it after Faith (song) to close Faith (album) on the remastered CD version of Faith.
Robert called this piece "a drunken soundtrack"! we love it!!
The song that inspired Californication
If aliens came and said TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER I would hand them this.
The story of How this was Made is Classic..Robert was Literally Dunk..and increasingly so, as he used the Drim Machine..to create this Awesome RIF/Tune. he used this as the Opening for the ORANGE tour..and some of the KISS me x3 Openers. Was offered in the US market on the Opposite side of a Double Cassette of Faith/Carnige Visors
I still own it.
Actually for the opening of live in orange county they never used this one, they used a sample from a song on Toxin - the title of an LP by a German synth rock group called X mal Deutschland. The same sample was also featured on The Glove Blue Sunshine - a Robert Smith and Steve Severin side project.

This was what I listened to laying in bed to go to sleep in 1987 when I was 12. 37 years later..
the cure !!!!! carnage great fuckn song !!!! still got it on cassette tape till this day .got the old first albums too and many more
First time listening to this. I’m 46 and a loved one introduced the cure to me. Been a fan since. Maybe this will help me sleep. Sure do miss him. 😢
Sorry for your loss
de las mejores canciones de THE CURE...
i remember when i was a little kid we used to make hand made bridge and each of us passed this bridge gate in his turn, this made me feel comfortable and safe. i get the same feeling hearing this tune. dont know why. grate piece
...co bym, tu nie napisał i tak nie odda tego co czuję ! ! ! Wspaniałe 28 minut z życia ! ! ! ...
Remember this at the Hammersmith Odeon on the Faith tour. Shame the film has been lost, I never quite understood it, but am guessing it had some deep and dark meaning........The Cure at their very best.....
32 years, and this is still one of my favorite tracks.
a 6 strings bass guitar and play for half an hour. It's very good. I'd like to see the movie that's going with this song.
Tout est hyper intéressant dans The Cure première période 80's... Sombre, intrigant, bien foutu... La classe artistique !
Very nice songs........remember 1981!
Composizione perfetta vero stile cure nella musicassette di faith era inserita bella colonna sonora 👍👍👍
Great. I saw this animation in Genk when The Cure was a the Faith album tour. Its so long ago. Great times.
Good taste in music brought me here.
This is one of those cassette tapes I'm grateful I still can recall every note of... I used to play it on the tapedeck which would automatically flip to B-side when A ended.
If I don't get tix to see theEasyCure this tour, I'ma b real upset for realfr
🤬
Different colored variations on the image of one of the characters is not enough! The original film and accompanying music was unforgettable, but why can no-one, anywhere, locate a copy? 34 years old and still doesn't sound dated...possibly, probably, their finest moment...
Finally my soul has a sound...
"The Best of The Cure"
Gorgeous!!
That was probably the first "Post Rock" track ever recorded...No wonder why Smith is a huge Mogwai fan...All is said ! Gallup's bass playing is absolutely amazing, you can hear the beginnings of what would become "Pornography" in 1982...
lol its just a piece made for a movie...
dont get me wrong, i love the cure and this track... but it just doesnt make sense calling it "the first post rock ever recorded"
@@TheKinderfeld I read it twice over the years, so I'm just sharing an opinion... Robert Smith was very fond of Mogwai, offering the band to tour with The Cure in 2004. Post Rock was a term quoted by journalists. And it's mainly long atmospheric tracks with no singing. So, "Carnage Visors" can be seen as pre Post Rock track, but not that different from Post Rock compositions...
@@TheKinderfeld A movie directed by Simon Gallup's brother I managed to see in the 80's...
@@JODIDO84 damn i wasnt even born hahaha. Im glad you saw it!
....and again and again and again and again.......yes, The Cure!
This is on my short list for best thing ever.
thxs for posting, I was looking for a full version for a long long long long time
Wow. I never got around to hunting this down. Thank you for posting it! I love CZcams for this sort of thing right here...lol.
ES UNA OBRA MAESTRA OCULTA ROBERT Y SIMON TODOS ADELANTADOS ALA PERFECCION👏👏
One of their best.
Great atmosphere
it's clear it's a masterpiece ! The last seconds last in my head for ever !
Really calms ya down and reflect at the end of the day.
I know John Frusciante of the RHCP says he's influenced by this song when writing Californication. I must say I hardly hear it. I mean the repetitive playing of an Am chord followed by an F(maj7) chord is used in so many songs f.e. Cowgirl in the sand (Neil Young), I scare myself (Thomas Dolby) among sure lots others. The essental thing about the Californication version is which strings he picks and what hammer-on's he incorperates in them. That's the strenghts of his (new) guitarpart in my opinion.
perfect music for my current mindset
It was created as the sound track to an animated short film by by Ric Gallup, Simon Gallup's brother, that was screened at the beginning of shows in place of a support band on the 1981 Faith Picture Tour. I was lucky enough to see and hear it at the Capitol Theatre Sydney.

Wow! I have never heard this! Been a Cure fan since junior high (late 80s) . ThankS!!!!
This is angel music this music givess you supernatural power you are so special and blessed
My first time hearing this and I,v been a fan since 79,.......spooky
The ultimate Bass VI song!
yes
Wow, I've never heard this and I thought I'd owned every record back when i was an obsessive teenager i the 90's. Thank you.
This was on the B side to the Faith tape I picked up at a thrift store the summer I was 17. We drove all over the city at night with this gloomy shit droning on wondering when it would end. I think I gave that tape to a girl. I think she died.
+Thomas Mason IV stupid....she did die...
+Thomas Mason IV Don't worry mate, if it's the girl I'm thinking of she works behind the counter at Greggs bakery in Mersey precinct, Stockport. Alive and well according to my sisters mates boyfriend. Result!
rocknrollhippy771 mate...go write a mystery book......so, she not dead..oh..i know i should of never asked....LOL
I think I met this same gal tending bar at some pub in Newquay. She drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney, she said she had never been with a yank so I opted to go to her flat, she drove a Yugo and this song was playin in the deck when she finally coaxed the car to start.....
I think we all died...
I had the Faith / Carnage Visors cassette. Wore the writing off. so many good memories.
Instead of a support group on the 1981 Faith tour (Picture Tour), The Cure recorded this as a soundtrack to a short abstract animation film done by Simon's brother Ric Gallup. To this day I have never seen the film.
missescookie thanks for your comment missescookie
greets from annevreni
+missescookie they would show the film before the start of the concert....I saw them in '81 and was blown away
+JustineLaLoba Lucky you! I would have given anything to have seen them in '81, but was in very early teens with no means of seeing them then. Still my favorite Cure period.
+missescookie I've never seen the film either. One of these days.
It was something to remember...but - as you may expect - people all around were sitting talking all the way through it...
thank u sooooo much for posting this awesome darkest double album from the cure I am also a big fan of the cure , I LOL!
when Robert smith, goes really dark in goth sound .
cheers.
What a find!!! Sooooo eerie. Perfect. Almost 30 minutes!
Thumbs up everyone who wants this played at their funeral? What a way to go...
It’s on my funeral play list as the intro -
Still hesitating between this and ""Eneide di Krypton" by LITFIBA. Both would be perfect ways to go, wouldn't they?
ohh... it's good to listen to this again. Thanks.
Reading the mist right now, this is a pretty great backdrop for the story.
Thanks for the upload, i had the tape "faith", so much remembering...
The intro sounds like a Mortal Kombat game over screen.
