Another Post About The Cure
Ok, one more thing about the new cure album and I'll stop talking about it…maybe.
The Cure’s most recent album has been released all over the world in different formats with different track listings. And guess what…the U.S. cd pressing has the fewest number of songs. If you were to purchase the British or the Japanese pressing of the cd, you would get one to four more tracks. The only way to get all of the songs in the U.S. is to pay top dollar for an import cd or purchase the U.S. vinyl pressing (which I have yet to see in stores).
To further complicate things, the U.S. single for “The End Of The World” will be released on both cd and 7” vinyl. The cd will have two of these tracks while the 7” will only have one of them. Maybe the other tracks will be released on future singles?
Well, I did find another way to get hold of these songs, without spending all of my money and without pulling my hair out (thank you Soul Seek), and let me tell you, they aren’t throwaway tracks; they are pretty damn good.
If you’re a Cure fan like me, and want to hear what "The Man" is keeping from you, check out these new tracks:
