Out of all the bands that emerged in the immediate aftermath of punk rock in the late '70s, The Cure was one of the most enduring & popular. As one of the bands that laid the seeds for goth rock, the group created towering layers of guitars & synthesizers, but by the time goth caught on in the mid-'80s, The Cure had moved away from the genre. By the end of the '80s, The Cure had crossed over into the mainstream not only in their native Engl&, but around the world. Disintegration was releas ...

Recorded in the midst of Robert Smith's tenuous tenure with Siouxsie & the Banshees, The Top is arguably the most hedonistic record the Cure ever produced. Essentially Smith & Lol Tolhurst working with studio musicians (this being the period when the Cure's lineup was never assured), it's an album obviously recorded under stress, drink, & drugs.

Cure - Mixed Up

Who says The Cure don't have a sense of humor? While The Cure had often struggled with the dichotomy between dancing and moping in an attempt to prove that the two were not incompatible, critics simply smiled at the band's audacity. What did a band of pasty-faced art students from England know about bumping on the dance floor anyway? As it turns out, the band knew quite a bit.
