I got into The Cure in 4th grade, when most people around me weren't listening to anything like that-just listening to the shit on the radio.
They've always been my favorite band and a huge influence on the music I write. I don't care for the poppy stuff too much, Just Like Heaven or Friday I'm in Love.
But favorites are some of the darker songs on Wish, all of Pornography, Disintegration, Bloodflowers.I was lucky enough to see them in 2000 on their brief 5 show US club tour. Only 900 tickets went on sale in Dallas, bought at Ticketmaster the way they do the lottery thing. They called my number and like a little girl getting to see NSYNC I thought I was going to scream.
The show was amazing. Standing 15 feet away from Robert Smith for close to three hours.
They are on a new label now and are working on a new album with the guy who produced Korn (I think...)
Makes me really curious what that will sound like.
They also have a 4 disc B-Side set coming out this month of tons of songs.
