Pre-order The Cure’s first studio album in 16 years:
Available to pre-order RIGHT HERE, 'Songs of a Lost World’ is The Cure’s first studio album in 16 years.
The eight songs on the record were composed by virtuoso frontman Robert Smith, and it was recorded at the world-famous Rockfield Studios in Wales.
'Songs of a Lost World’ was preceded by the epic lead single ‘Alone’ in September, a musically ambitious seven-minute opus that kicks off with three minutes of atmospheric instrumentals before Robert Smith enters the fray with his idiosyncratic vocals.
The follow-up single ‘A Fragile Thing’ is on heavy rotation on Absolute Radio’s airwaves and it’s already a Cure classic. Have a listen here:
Robert Smith says of the track: “‘A Fragile Thing’ is driven by the difficulties we face in choosing between mutually exclusive needs and how we deal with the futile regret that can follow these choices, however sure we are that the right choices have been made… it can often be very hard to be the person that you really need to be.”
Robert Smith created the sleeve concept, and Andy Vella, a long-time Cure collaborator, handled the album's art and design. The cover art features 'Bagatelle', a 1975 sculpture by Janez Pirnat.
'Songs Of A Lost World' will be released as a 1LP, a Miles Showell Abbey Road half-speed master 2LP, marble-coloured 1LP, double Cassette, CD, a deluxe CD package with a Blu-ray featuring an instrumental version of the record and a Dolby Atmos mix of the album, and digital formats.
