They've been around since the early 1980s, but The Cure have lost none of their potency. Their self-titled album is the first new material they've recorded since they returned from the wilderness with 2000's 'Bloodflowers', and it ranks alongside their best work.
The Cure are back and singer and frontman Robert Smith is almost as surprised about it as the numerous fans: "There have always been moments in the past few years when the air was simply out. Recording the new album was almost surreal for me, but it was one of the best experiences of the last few years."
In fact, this atmosphere can be felt and heard everywhere on the new longplayer 'The Cure'. Producer Ross Robinson (Korn, Limp Bizkit and others) played a significant role. "Ross didn't reinvent the band - but he brought us back to our roots. The album was recorded virtually live and we felt that," says Robert Smith.
