Album Leak Causes Stir Among The Cure Fans
The Cure fans are buzzing with excitement as leaked information about the band’s upcoming instrumental album, „Songs of a Lost World,“ has surfaced online. Various websites have been linking to a specific page where fans were able to download a new portrait photo of frontman Robert Smith, as well as the alleged album cover. The official release date of the album is set for November 1, 2024.
What has added to the controversy is the fact that the leaked images were reportedly provided by the Polish branch of Universal Music, the label responsible for distributing The Cure’s new album. Both the new portrait of Robert Smith and the album cover were briefly available for download from the promotional page. While fans were excited to get a sneak peek at the visuals, the leak has undoubtedly caused a headache for the record label.

This news comes as a dream come true for Robert Smith, who has expressed his desire to record an instrumental album since the 1990s.
Despite the Polish Universal Music page removing the downloads, the leaked images continue to circulate on platforms like X and Twitter. Users can still access the page through the „Wayback Machine,“ an archive site with a seemingly infinite memory. Fans are now eagerly awaiting an official response from the record label regarding the leaked information.
