Goth Gods THE CURE released their 14th album, their
first in 16 years, titled Songs Of A Lost World last Friday.
A stunning, heart-and-soul stirring longplayer mostly inspired by
maestro Robert Smith‘s loss of his brother and parents the past
16 years.
TUTV: “The most drastically soul-stirring record I heard all year, accentuating how
sorrow can overwhelm and hurt one’s heart and mind. It’s a universal experience that
millions, and millions of people who lost loved ones – past, present and future – can
relate to.”
Unquestionable contender for Album Of The Year.
On the album’s release day, November 1st, the band played their new
magnum opus in full (and ended with a series of past hits) at The Roxy
in London (OMG, I wish I was there). The concert was streamed in real
time on the internet.
If you’re a fan, and you missed
it, here’s the full 3-hour show.
