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 bands 13 studio albums, utilizing a panel of thoughtful and engaging music critics culled from the authors and Marco DAurias 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 bands seminal records, beginning with Three Imaginary Boys in 1979 and ending with 4:13 Dream in 2008. As a 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 bands catalog, 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.
