The legendary band fronted by Britain’s mopiest musician, Robert Smith , returns again. Four years after their last release, The Cure have produced "4:13 Dream", which draws on nostalgia from their 80’s heyday while still pushing their work in a new direction. The name of the album itself is a reference to the band’s longevity, after 30 years the band have released their 13th studio album, and after the departure of keyboardist Roger O’Donnell this marks the f...

Well, I just got done listening to the latest Cure single. Huh, I don't know what to say. It was o.k. I guess. While Wild Mood Swings had a few good songs and Bloodflowers was an unbelievable disappointment I really need to here all of 4:13 Dream. I've been a rabid fan for 20 some odd years and there was a time when all I listened to was The Cure, Depeche Mode, Joy Division, Nitzer Ebb, New Order, and The Smiths but all the while Robert and the boys remained my fav...

Go ahead, put that red button in your Post-Punk Friday and smoke it. There was a time, a long time ago, when I didn't have every Cure album readily available to me. I hadn't delved into the back catalog beyond the Japanese Whispers mini-album, didn't have that desire to have every song Robert Smith committed to tape/vinyl/plastic/whatever. Taking a chance and picking up the Concert casette changed all that. Oh, the Concert side was good enough, a romp through some of t... MORE

Remembrance of Things Past: Friday Night The Cure at Madison Square Garden: 1) Wake up to "Six Different Ways" set on my alarm 2) Doodle Robert Smith on a spare scrap of the NY Post
3) Re-read all his infamous interviews from Rollingstone looking for inspiration
4) Think about how guilty all those major labels that first rejected the skinny kids from London's Crawley suburbs back in the day. Think about how many bands I know currently in the same predicament and surviv... MORE

Crawley's finest return for album 13 of articulate moping over glorious pop hooks. And one real stinker.

In a recent post, Dale – fittingly Trusted MOGger, fabricator of the EMCD label, and notorious purveyor of intoxicating sounds - came up with some vintage live tracks by British new-wave standard-bearers The Cure. It was some early stuff, circa the Seventeen Seconds album, including a compelling take on "In Your House." And I was well chuffed that Dale unleashed it upon us. The good news: With the advent of the Interwebs, no cultural artifact seems to be too out of reach ... MORE

While, mi hermano was devoted to Robert Smith and The Cure, my lyrical corazon belonged to Mode and New Order. I admit I wasn't a diehard Cure fan... MORE

Robert Smith doesn’t want you to buy the new Cure Hypnagogic States EP from iTunes. Says paying £7.99 for it is a rip off and "absurd"! In a blog post on Cure’s Web site Smith not only sounded pissed about it ("For fuck sake!) but points out that it’s "not a fucking album, it’s a 5 track EP"! At least he’s doing something about it. You can find out what he really feels the EP should go for below.

It seems the Cure are taking every precaution to unjinx the release of their 13th studio album. Fear of the number 13 is common news for airports and hotels, with gate 13 or floor 13 being omitted from many. But the Cure are looking triskaidekaphobia in the eye and releasing four A & B side singles each month up, the first on May 13th, up until the the release of their as yet untitled thirteenth studio album on September 13th. That's a lot of 13s. The May 13th sing... MORE

Another 13th has passed and with it The Cure have released a video for the third single "Sleep When I'm Dead" off their forthcoming album. The untitled effort -- tentatively being called mix 13, is the band's 13th studio album -- is promised to be out September 13th. Hopefully by then it will also have a real title. The single was released yesterday with the b-side Down Under. Personally the video is a little hard for me to watch. Robert Smith has GOT to get himself a ne... MORE
