After 40 years of performing, The Cure still prove their worth as music giants. The band is set to release their film Anniversary 1978-2018 in Hyde Park London, and fans can get a taste of the set with a live video of “Lullaby” from the set, which you can check out below.
THE CURE – LULLABY (ANNIVERSARY 1978-2018 LIVE IN HYDE PARK)
As the Hyde Park set has proven to be a beloved performance by the band, its film promises to be a welcomed addition to the band’s collection as well. “This really was the perfect way to celebrate 40 years of the band,” said The Cure frontman Robert Smith. “It was a fabulous day none of us will ever forget”.
Tim Pope, the director who has worked along front man Robert Smith and The Cure for decades stated “working alongside Robert for these 37 years of the band’s 40-year history – and also having previously filmed the band for the 35mm In Orange 1986 concert film – I wanted cinema-goers to feel like they were in the thick of the action, in the heart of the music. Our film really captures the true power and passion of The Cure’s music for a global audience.”
Currently said to be working on a “dark” and “incredibly intense” 14th studio album, and being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year, the band is definitely still going strong after 40 years of work.
