The Cure have shared the first single, “Alone”, off their upcoming 14th album “Songs Of A Lost World” out November 1st.

Robert Smith shared this about the song: “It’s the track that unlocked the record; as soon as we had that piece of music recorded I knew it was the opening song, and I felt the whole album come into focus. I had been struggling to find the right opening line for the right opening song for a while, working with the simple idea of “being alone,” always in the back of my mind this nagging feeling that I already knew what the opening line should be… as soon as we finished recording I remembered the poem “Dregs” by the English poet Ernest Dowson… and that was the moment when I knew the song (and the album) were real.”
The Cure did share the artwork for the album, however, no tracklist has been shared yet. The same thing goes for no news regarding any new plans for a tour to support the album.
