After ten long years they have a new album out this year. He wrote every song and produced it his own eccentric self. It's his record but he kindly allows the others to use the band's name. haha

I believe "Songs Of A Lost World" is as good as anything The Cure has released to date, and I admit it gives me goosebumps. ...Robert Smith does indeed look much worse for the wear, and perhaps darker.
