The Cure Unveils New Album and Tour Plans
The legendary band The Cure has just dropped a bombshell for their fans: a new album is in the works! This announcement comes just days after they revealed a fresh batch of tour dates for 2026, leaving fans eagerly anticipating more music.
In a subtle yet significant move, The Cure updated their website with a simple yet intriguing message. It reads, 'In March 2025, the band returned to Rockfield Studios to record 13 new songs for an upcoming album.' This quiet update is a classic move by the band, known for their understated approach to news.
But here's where it gets intriguing. The band's new album might be connected to a project Robert Smith, the iconic frontman, hinted at in a Radio X interview. He teased a companion to their recent album, 'Songs from a Lost World,' featuring a more melancholic and sadder tone, with some songs dating back to 2016. This potential new direction has fans buzzing with excitement.
However, The Cure isn't stopping there. The band's bio also mentions their collaboration with Olivia Rodrigo at Glastonbury earlier this year, followed by a studio session to re-edit and re-mix the 'Songs of a Lost World' film. This suggests that fans can expect a fresh and innovative concert experience in the near future.
The Cure's recent activities have been making headlines. In April, they released a remixed version of 'Songs from a Lost World,' and earlier this month, they made news for a different reason. The band took legal action against ICE, a video agency, over the use of their song 'Friday I'm in Love' in a propaganda video, showcasing their commitment to protecting their artistic work.
With a new album on the horizon and an evolving creative process, The Cure continues to captivate and surprise their fans, ensuring their legacy remains strong and relevant.
