The Cure: gimmicking the number 13

RobertSmith250The Cure have a great back catalogue. At their shows earlier in the year they literally excited Music Towers so much we forgot to write a review. Now they’ve decided it’s about time they add to their already-stupidly-impressive songsheet with a new album, due out on September 13. Did you see that? September 13. It’s their thirteenth studio album as well, so the band have decided that on the 13th of every month between now and the release of the album, they’re going to release a new single. Wowsers. The first single, ‘The Only One’, is out on May 13, with ‘Freakshow’ being the title of June’s release. No news as yet on July and August’s songs, but we imagine they will be just as special.
