It's another of our specials, this time about The Cure. It was inevitable that we would get around to featuring them sooner rather than later, given they are one of my favourite bands. During my teenage years I would venture that they were untouched, as I carried them with me like a guide.
One thing that has been pleasing about getting contributors to write about the band is that so many people held the Cure tightly as teenagers, helping them navigate their way in the world. And maybe The Cure needed the trauma of that time in life to make sense. But once you are into their world, nobody wants to leave.
We ended up with a lovely mix of returning contributors and new people, experienced journalists and people who had only written the odd thing. The key thing is with every piece featured is that the passion shines through. Enjoy this trip through the back catalogue of albums, plus one compilation, Steve’s piece on seeing them live at Crystal Palace Bowl, a gig I was at myself (see issue 3) and an extract from John Robb’s book The Art Of Darkness.
