Fans have been speculating that The Cure may be teasing an imminent return to music following the band changing their social media logos and updating their website – as well as revealing posts from band members and their relatives.
Earlier today (September 9), The Cure took to their official social media pages to swap out their previous profile picture for a new one comprised of a brand new band logo with an all-black background. The sudden change of photo has led fans to believe that Robert Smith and co may be announcing some kind of return – which they hope is the long-awaited ‘Songs Of A Lost World’.
Fans quickly took to the comments section under the band’s Facebook update to share their excitement. “Please let it be finally an announcement of the new album!!,” wrote one user while another shared: “Come on gents, announce the new album! I hope we get it soon along with a new tour!”
Another fan wrote: “Come on, new album. I want to hear the studio version of those new songs you played in Leeds 2022.” They were referencing the likes of ‘A Fragile Thing’, ‘Another Happy Birthday‘ and ‘I Can Never Say Goodbye‘ which were three of the new tracks the band debuted while on tour in 2022.
Not only that, but guitarist Reeves Gabrels also shared a link directing fans to the band’s redesigned website and urging them to sign up to the mailing list. Eden, the son of bassist Simon Gallup (who stood in for his father on a run of 2019 dates), also excited fans by posting the lyrics from new song ‘Alone’: “This is the end of every song that we sing…”
