Wild Mood Swings: Disintegrating The Cure Album by Album, Martin
Popoff's innovative new project on iconic post-punk pioneers The
Cure, celebrates 50 years now since key actor of the band Robert
Smith got hold of his first guitar. And the form this celebration
takes is a critical analysis of the band's 13 studio albums,
utilising a panel of thoughtful and engaging music critics culled
from the author's and Marco D'Auria's video channel, The
Contrarians. Presented in easy-to-read Q&A format, Martin
gathers these wise music swamis into small teams with an aim toward
deconstructing and reassembling each album, hopefully generating
myriad new ways for the reader and Cure fan to appreciate the
band's seminal records, beginning with Three Imaginary Boys in 1979
and ending with 4:13 Dream in 2008. As bonus to the discussion,
Popoff has created a detailed timeline linked to each album,
echoing the format used for his many celebrated visual biographies
issued through Wymer Publishing in recent years. The end result
presents a fresh methodology with which to consider a band's
catalogue, with the hope being that the mix of hard chronological
reference material and freewheeling opinion, review and analysis
makes for a lively celebration of-and subsequent richer
appreciation for-everything Robert Smith has done for millions of
Cure fans around the world, much of it therapeutic, redemptive and
in so many inspiring instances, urgently life-saving.
