The Cure

THE CURE will release their long-awaited new album, ‘SONGS OF A LOST WORLD’, on 1st November. The album, their 14th studio release, is their first in 16 years. Songs from the record were previewed during The Cure’s 90-date, 33-country ‘Shows Of A Lost World’ tour for more than 1.3 million people to overwhelming fan and critical acclaim.

‘ALONE’, the first song released from the album, opened every show on the tour and is available to stream now. The band will reveal the rest of the tracklisting for the record over the coming weeks at http://www.songsofalost.world/ and on their social channels.

Speaking about ‘ALONE’, the opening track on ‘SONGS OF A LOST WORLD’, Robert Smith says, “It’s the track that unlocked the record; as soon as we had that piece of music recorded I knew it was the opening song, and I felt the whole album come into focus. I had been struggling to find the right opening line for the right opening song for a while, working with the simple idea of ‘being alone’, always in the back of my mind this nagging feeling that I already knew what the opening line should be… as soon as we finished recording I remembered the poem ‘Dregs’ by the English poet Ernest Dowson… and that was the moment when I knew the song – and the album – were real.” Check out ‘Alone’ – BELOW: https://www.xsnoize.com/the-cure-announce-the-release-of-their-long-awaited-new-album-songs-of-a-lost-world-on-1st-november/
