ALBUM FACTS :
DESCRIPTION :
The Cure began in 1976 as Easy Cure in Crawley, England, with Robert Smith (vocals, guitar), Michael Dempsey (bass), and
Lol Tolhurst (drums), along with guitarist Porl Thompson. Thompson departed, and the remaining trio renamed themselves The Cure. They released their debut single, "Killing an Arab," in 1978 and their first album, Three Imaginary Boys, in 1979. Following the darker period, Smith introduced more pop elements into the music, leading to widespread commercial success in the 1980s and 1990s. The band continued to release studio albums and has maintained a dedicated fanbase and a lasting impact on alternative rock music.
