Wild Mood Swings 25th anniversary special from DEK Magazine
In 1996, The Cure released Wild Mood Swings, an album that sold well but somehow failed to find its way into fans’ affections.Robert Smith curates our 25th anniversary feature on The Cure's 'Wild Mood Swings'. #whatsyourmood #thecure https://t.co/UQ5RfXH4tA pic.twitter.com/0dfm55b7mv

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, this 35-page feature, curated by Robert Smith and featuring contributions from producer Steve Lyon, asks if it’s time to reassess the band’s most underrated album.
Based on Smith’s own memories of the period between 1993 and 1997, when Wild Mood Swings was written, recorded and toured, it tells a story of wrong turns and forgotten gems, musical innovation and artistic overreach, Halloween parties and the meaninglessness of time.
In a detailed analysis of the album, Smith reveals which are his favourite songs as well as which should – and shouldn’t – have been included on the final track listing.
A selection of rarely seen images accompany the article, including behind-the-scenes photographs from the recording of Wild Mood Swings taken by Smith and Lyon, while the cover of issue 03 is by Andy Vella, the designer responsible for so much classic Cure artwork.

Jason is working with Jules Maxwell
From Riff Magazine: "Maxwell is also hard at work on another musical collaboration with The Cure drummer Jason Cooper. He described it the project, recorded in London, as being like The White Stripes…. if Jack White traded in his guitar for a piano."

Chvrches on how they got to work with Robert
The Cure frontman provides vocals on How Not To Drown, which is taken from album Screen Violence (released via EMI on August 27). Smith has also remixed the track.
Chvrches initially approached the rock pioneer via Campbell McNeil, their co-manager with Danny Rogers as part of Lunatic Entertainment, who emailed a mutual acquaintance.
Smith then got in touch, simply asking: “I heard you were looking for me. What do you want?”
“We were like, ‘Guys, what do we want?’” the band's Martin Doherty told Music Week, revealing that they sent him a selection of music before Smith elected to work on How Not To Drown.
“We left him for a while,” added Doherty. “You know, you don’t follow-up email Robert Smith, you send it, you cross your fingers...”
After a month of silence, The Cure man delivered.
“An email came through from Robert, ‘Here’s your tune, let me know if you like the vocals and let’s talk about how to finish it’," remembered Doherty.
“This is a bit much, but I was definitely crying!”
For bandmate Lauren Mayberry not only did Chvrches get a new track, but the collaboration restored her faith in creativity.
“I’ve definitely been quite disillusioned by the quote-unquote industry at certain times,” she explained, “and he is everything that isn’t that, just such a true artist and a true gem.”
Chvrches were speaking to Music Week for our latest issue, which is on sale now.
