The Cure

In November 2017, The Cure was gearing up for their performance at the American Music Awards, which was quite a notable moment not just for fans but also in the band's expansive career. They had just released their album "4:13 Dream" back in 2008, and at this point, they were riding the waves of their status as post-punk icons. Reflecting on their enduring legacy, it’s fascinating to think about how they’ve managed to stay relevant through various waves of musical trends, and yet, still retain that unique sound that fans love. This live rehearsal captured elements of both nostalgia and anticipation, as everyone likely remembered the impact of their 1989 album "Disintegration." The Cure's ability to blend haunting melodies with energetic performances continues to resonate, proving they're still a powerful force in the music world. Plus, the AMAs aren’t typically the go-to for alternative bands, which adds extra intrigue to this performance!
