With "Disintegration", The Cure found the magic poison to be one of the best groups of
music around the world and the master piece was "Fascination Street", The American
Audience was familiar with the darkest sounds of The Cure.
Smith declares: -"Maybe, "Disintegration" was the album that The cure made, but who knows, I don�t know is in fact a matter that I am always saying �Fuck!, maybe whe I come back to London, the inspiration would be return to me and I come back to the studio with a new record"-
At the End Of The World Tour, Roger O�Donnell quick the band after a fight with Simon and Boris, this time the new member would be Perry Bamonte, a musical technician in
Sound Guitars, he took the place of Roger for a while.
In 1990, Robert Smith gave another fake step, the mistake a compilation (the second in less than five years), of hits.
The people in charge to work in this new project was Mark Saunders, Paul Oakenfold and
William Orbit "Mixed Up", The Cure new sound was totally dance.
Robert Smith said: "I hate thatr Record"
The Cure made the cover song from The Door�s hit "Hello I Love You", and later Smith
was regret again because actually "The Doors" never liked.
In 1991 The Cure recorded an unplugged for MTV, some of this fragments could be seen in the video "Paly Out" and the Cure have a new album "Entreat", this album was a present for the British and French fans, the money was give it to a five different charity associations, one of them Amnesty International.
The Cure took two sabbatical years and everything looks like this time The Cure would be
no return to the music business, for Smith in that time we are talking about. There was
anything to show for The Cure, they were a mythical band with a huge influence in the new decade. The Cure were a band who found their style between the post-punk and the new wave. The Cure was survived to the time with dignity and success.
But deffinitly The Cure was not ready for been a band only in the "Rock Circus", Tussauds
Group Museum, and in the summer of 1991, the band comes back to the studio.
The name of the new album "Higer", the record was interrupted for a demand, the demander was Lol Tolhurst, who has his own band "Prescience", he demanded The Cure
for the sume of sales of the album "Mixed Up".
Robert accepted to go to the court and he was sure that he would win, after so many
audiences and all the money that the band spends in alcahol and parties; At the end
Smith and The Cure won the trial.
In 1992: "Wish" was finished, the first single was "High", the new single from The Cure
was not the continuation of "Desintegration", but the single was a hit finally, The Cure
has another number 1 in the UK, this album was nearest to the record "Kiss Me, Kiss Me,
Kiss Me".
"Friday I am In Love", was another # 1 in UK & USA, but the intention this time was different, What a hell was doing The Cure with this pop sound?
"A letter to Elise", a clone from "The Picture Of You", but very far away from Joyce�s
"Ulysses".
