'Beautifully written and meticulously researched . . . a stunning tribute to the alt-rock icons'
Classic Pop

'It will be hard to find a more all-encompassing repository of Cure wisdom than this one'
Record Collector


The Cure are indisputable titans of alternative rock.

Recognisable as much for their iconic aesthetic, videos and artwork as for the lyrical and musical genius of Robert Smith, The Cure's work remains hugely influential upon contemporary pop culture, reverberating with fans for generations across the world through genres ranging from Emo to Goth, Industrial to Indie Rock.

In Curepedia, Simon Price sifts through the facts, the myths and the tall tales around The Cure, their recording history and legendary tours, to deliver a uniquely kaleidoscopic portrait of the legendary band and a book that has been praised as the definitive document and account of their remarkable career.
