"Ahead of their headline set on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury, Ed Power looks back on how drugs, drink, and the recording process turned goth-rock troupe into ‘a powder keg ready to explode.'"
"Just Like Heaven" is a song by British #alternativeRock band #theCure. The group wrote most of the song during recording sessions in southern France in 1987. The lyrics were written by their frontman #RobertSmith, who drew inspiration from a past trip to the sea shore with his future wife. Smith's memories of the trip formed the basis for the song's accompanying #musicVideo. Before Smith had completed the lyrics. https://youtu.be/7ZtH4PQPwD0

CHINO MORENO Explains ROBERT SMITH's Guest Spot On One Of CROSSES' New Songs
It goes deeper than just needing a good guest.
Desde la cancha del pueblo no quedan muy bien las fotos, pero eso que apenas se ve es Robert Smith y su banda: The Cure.
Más de 2 horas y media de rock oscuro y depresivo, pero a veces también bailable.
🎧 A post with a path through the woods by @Waitnwallflower reminded me of "A Forest" by #TheCure. The official video on YT is low-quality (tinny), but I found this tech remix of the song by #BlankAndJones I like.
"Blank & Jones feat. #RobertSmith - A Forest" (2003).
Happy Birthday to Robert James Smith, English singer, lead guitarist for the band Siouxsie and the Banshees from 1982 to 1984, and Co-founder of the band The Cure, born on this day in 1959, Blackpool
