Songs of a Lost World was released this morning. It is the fourteenth studio album by THE CURE but it is also their first release of new material in 16 years since 2008’s 4:13 Dream.
All the songs on the album were composed solely by singer/guitarist Robert Smith. It is also their first studio album to feature Reeves Gabrels, having been a touring member since 2012, replacing Pearl Thompson, although previously Gabrels already featured on 1997’s single “Wrong Number”.
