Smith has repeatedly teased The Cure’s new record to NME as a dark, “merciless, relentless” piece, inspired by a period of great loss and in a similar spirit to their 1989 gothic art-rock masterpiece ‘Disintegration’.

Reviewing The Cure in London this December, NME described the show as “an unusual, but thrilling festive party”.
