Description
A definitive and truly unique visual biography of Robert Smith and company, The Cure, chronicling their 40+ year history with hundreds of entries in A to Z fashion.
The Cure remain, 40 plus years into their career, one of the biggest rock bands in the world. With 12 studio albums, tours that pack stadiums all over the world—including 65,000 in Hyde Park for their 40th Anniversary show in 2019 and three sold out nights in a row the last time they played Madison Square Garden—they were the first alternative band to be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame—in 2019 by Trent Reznor. Their influence is heard in bands as wide ranging as Chvrches to Interpol to My Chemical Romance.
Curepedia is a full-scale look at the long list of band members, current and past, trivia, tours, summaries of every album, song, films, as well as essays on the image of the band, their influence, their style, and their enduring legacy. Organized in an easy-to-follow A–Z format, this will be the perfect introduction for new fans, and a must-have for the obsessive as well.
