Few bands that emerged from the initial alternative music explosion of the late seventies and early eighties are still around. The Cure has not only managed to continue to exist but have continued to produce relevant music that excites and inspires its listeners.
The Cure's career has spiraled through a number of cycles, often times dependent on band leader Robert Smith's current state of mind. The Cure's first disc was a pop affair, but subsequent albums saw the band go deep into the dark side of the mind, culminating in 1982's goth classic, "Pornography", which was a brutal assault of the listener's senses.
Not content to be stereotyped, The Cure returned to a poppier sound on their next disc and continued in that direction, mixing in the elements of their moodier music to create a unique style that fascinated listeners and spawned a myriad of imitators. The Cure had attained a level of stardom not at all common in the genre of music they helped to build. The band had established a stellar reputation by this point as an engaging live act and headlined some enormous festivals during their prime in the mid-eighties to early nineties.
The Cure has existed for over thirty years now. Many, many bands have come and gone during that time. The Cure has survived and has done so on its own terms, never wavering to what was trendy in music at any particular time and constantly searching for a means to challenge their fans. They remain a potent force in rock music.
