Lima opening band Catervas meeting Robert

Más que felices de haber abierto el show de @thecure en Lima. Y un honor también haber conocido y conversado con el mismísimo @RobertSmith acerca de cómo influenció su banda en nosotros. Muchas gracias @MoveConcertsPE 🙌🇵🇪



New album status?

From Adam Lopardo:

"am at @johnrobb77 talk about The Art of Darkness. Said he was at Rockfield Studios 2 weeks ago and asked staff about @thecure album. Apparently It’s finished but @RobertSmith keeps tinkering cos he’s a control freak. They said it sounds amazing. One day we’ll hear it!"

Have heard that from other people too. And that this isn't a new development. "Done", but Robert won't let it go. Reeves mentioned it too in a recent interview.

Corona Capital livestream, no VPN needed

Cure WILL be on the livestream

Update: The Cure's set will now air from 11:10 pm - 1:40 am.



Nevermind. The Corona Capital livestream schedule I posted earlier was from 1 of their Twitch channels. Didn't realize they have two. 

The Cure WILL be streamed on one of their 2 Twitch & YouTube streams. But unless you're in Mexico, you'll probably need a VPN to watch.






Official livestream from Corona Capital

Update: Well, that channel that streamed Friday without region blocking did not stream Saturday, and we'll have to wait and see if they broadcast today.

The official YouTube and Twitch channels listed in the graphic below are livestreaming parts of the festival, but it's region locked and many of you will need a VPN if you want to watch. But there's no guarantee of them showing The Cure's set as of now.

Will post more later as info becomes available.


Looks like they'll have an official livestream on YouTube and Twitch.

Kill Scenes cover Short Term Effect

Debut album from LolxBudgiexJacknifeLee is out

Johnny Marr on The Cure

From NME:

Johnny Marr: “Bangers? They’re not to be sniffed at”

As he releases his first ever solo Best Of compilation, the icon speaks to NME about finding his own voice, what Billie Eilish has in common with The Cure and the stars that haunt his guitars.

We once spoke of your admiration for The Cure’s Robert Smith too. Would you put him in that category too?

“So much of The Cure stuff that appears to be dark is very beautiful. ‘Disintegration’ is an amazing record. But I saw them as a kid when ‘Seventeen Seconds’ [1980] came out. I just thought it was beautiful and modern. It’s funny, Billie is definitely coming from a similar sensibility but I think it has a similar vibe to it, in a way. A modern version. I can imagine being really into her records when I was 16 or 17.”
