The Cure

Ah, The Cure—what a journey they've taken! By the time they graced the Glastonbury Festival stage on June 25, 1995, they were riding high on the waves of their album "Wish," which had dropped just a year earlier. "Wish" is often heralded as one of their most commercially successful albums, featuring tracks like "Friday I'm in Love" that became instant anthems for countless fans. Interestingly, this live performance encapsulates the peak of their early '90s renaissance, showcasing the band’s ability to blend moody aesthetics with vibrant energy. It’s also worth noting that during this era, Robert Smith was at his creative zenith, not just as a frontman but also as a composer, deeply influencing the alternative rock scene. The emotional resonance of their live shows back then was palpable, and this Glastonbury set is a brilliant snapshot of that charged period in their career. Who doesn't love seeing a legendary band filling a festival with their unique sound?
