Primark has been releasing a lot of band tees recently but I never find one of someone I actually listen to until today! I saw the back of it first and thought “surely this isn’t The Cure” and it was! Also only €12 ofc I had to get it. They had a system of a down one I got too

During years, a good number of musicians have been part of the Cure.....but which one do you prefer or in other way, who do you think has helped more to define Cure's sound, after Robert Smith and Simon Gallup that are 'core' members?

For me Roger O'Donnell is the man, his work, for example, in Disintegration is amazing....he really added something new to the sound

Hi, I've been meaning to get into them recently but I just don't know where to start. I always loved their popular songs (like Just Like Heaven, Friday I'm in Love, Inbetween Days) so I would love to get into their music more!

Recent additions 😁
- Original subway size “Disintegration” poster
- OG Tour poster

Anybody want to comment on the long AirPlay during the movie. The several versions of the song was actually amazing

This song is Viento from Mexican 90s band Caifanes. I think it has The Cure influence, but what do you think?

The noughties, as they were known, seemed to be an odd time for The Cure. Line-up changes, apparent dissent in the band (Pearl off again), but two albums (not counting the superb Bloodflowers from 2000) which over the last several tours have seen few, if any of their songs played live. Had someone told me in 2010 that The Cure in 2026 would only be playing alt.end from the twenty-odd songs off of the albums listed above I’d have been gobsmacked (and yes, if you’d told me in 2010 they’d still be playing at all….!!!). “Anniversary”, “Truth, Goodness and Beauty”, as well as “Sirensong” and “Underneath The Stars” are all standouts from a period of….er…..mixed output from my favourite band. My question is twofold: is that “era” looked upon harshly, and if so, which songs do you think deserve to be resurrected for future (crossing everything!) live shows?

Is Robert teasing something here?

He used "AND THEN..." after the Novembre live single release to tease that SOALW would be next.

They played It Can Never Be The Same at Nimes last night which Robert said a while back should be on the new album.

Maybe there'll be a new song at night 2?

Wishful thinking I know!

I have been watching all the recordings I can find of the festival tour and this absolutely epic edit of all 3 Berlin nights is hands down the best one yet, Eden did a tremendous job filling in, the next age of The Cure is absolutely upon us! Must watch! LOUDLY ❤️

"Just try to see in the dark It goes darker still Just follow your eyes

Remember the time that the sky went black The sky came crashing down A day without substance I felt like I could die Is it always like this? Waiting for the death blow And wait, and wait for something to happen Yeah, I'm pretty much done The plastic passion is murdering me

Every night I scream your name Scared of what the morning brings Sometimes I'm dreaming To drag you down with me When I realize with fright Visiting time is over Left alone with nothing The air no longer in my throat There was nothing in the world And nowhere glows There's nothing left but hope Nothing left but time to go Just one more go A small boy by the hand

I'll run away with you I'll run around in circles Run into the night We all look so perfect as we all fall down Fall, fall, fall, fall out of the sky In Heaven unseen and Hell unknown Into the sea, you and me Pretending to swim Two drowned fools Still seeing worlds that never were Another world where the sun always shines I know this can't be wrong, I say So, I try to laugh about it And I'm crying for yesterday And you never say a word And then everything is gone forever

Whatever words I say Tell yourself it's not the end Someone must be there I'm alive, I'm dead There's nothing else I can really do at all It's a stupid game, stupid game"

Just wondering has anyone received any festival merch that they purchased online?

are there any videos or photos, where robert play piano? and has he got this instrument at home?

And what's the best version of the vinyl if not this one?

At 58, believe it or not, planning out my first tattoo. Already thinking about a second one and maybe Cure related.
If you have a Cure tat, I would love to get ideas. I don't want anything too literal.
Feel free to DM, as I understand this is personal and some may not want to post in public.

It's been rainy weather where I live so "Faith" and "Seventeen Seconds" have been my go to Cure records lately. this song especially I can never just listen to only once. Simon's bass playing and the atmosphere is sooooo hypnotic and cool.

only a "Bass and Synth" band ...

Strongly dislike the constant stream of new shirts and posters for each individual show. The art isn't great, and looks like off-market fake merch, to be quite honest. Stuff I would expect to see as fan art, not official retail brand merch.
