The Cure

By 2013, The Cure was riding a wave of nostalgia while still pushing creative boundaries. Before the live recording in Santiago, Chile, the band had released their album "4:13 Dream" in 2008. This album marked a period where they blended their classic gothic rock sound with more experimental elements, continuing to showcase their evolution over the decades. Interestingly, despite their long history, The Cure maintained a dynamic presence in live performances, known for their energetic sets and connection with fans. This show at the Estadio Nacional was during their "Reflections" tour, which highlighted their earlier works, peppering in hits and deep cuts alike. Watching this concert, it's palpable how their sound resonates through generations, uniting both long-time subscribers to their music and newer fans alike amidst the vibrant backdrop of Santiago. It was a reminder of their steadfast role in shaping the alternative rock scene and their enduring appeal.
