The English rock band the Cure has released fourteen studio albums, seven live albums, three remix albums, seven compilation albums, eight box sets, twelve extended plays, and forty-seven singles on Fiction Records and Geffen Records. They have also released twelve video albums and forty-four music videos.
Formed in 1976,[1][2][3] the Cure grew out of a band known as Malice. Malice formed in January 1976 and underwent several line-up changes and a name change to Easy Cure[4] before The Cure was founded in May 1978. The Cure's original line-up consisted of guitarist/vocalist Robert Smith, drummer Laurence "Lol" Tolhurst and bassist Michael Dempsey. The band has continued through various line-ups; Smith is the group's only remaining original member. The line-up as of 2024 consisted of Smith, bassist Simon Gallup, keyboard player Roger O'Donnell, multi-instrumentalist Perry Bamonte, guitarist Reeves Gabrels and drummer Jason Cooper.
The Cure's debut album, Three Imaginary Boys (1979), reached number 44 on the UK Albums Chart.[5] The next two albums, Seventeen Seconds (1980) and Faith (1981), were top 20 hits in the UK, reaching number 20 and number 14 respectively.[5] Between 1982 and 1996, the Cure released seven studio albums, all of which reached the Top 10 in the UK.[5] The most successful of these was Wish (1992) which reached number one in the UK and number two on the US Billboard 200.[5][6] They released the next album Wild Mood Swings in 1996. The following three studio albums – Bloodflowers (2000), The Cure (2004) and 4:13 Dream (2008) – had mixed success, reaching numbers 14, 8 and 33 in the UK respectively.[5][7] The group released their fourteenth album, Songs of a Lost World, on 1 November 2024, the group's first new album in sixteen years.
