The Cure Scores First-Ever U.S. No. 1 Album with Songs of a Lost World

The Cure has achieved a historic milestone with their latest album, Songs of a Lost World, which has become the band's first-ever No. 1 album in the United States. Released on November 1, 2024, this marks The Cure's best performance on Billboard charts since their 1992 album Wish. The new record topped five different Billboard charts, including Top Album Sales and Top Rock Albums, and debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200.

The album has garnered critical acclaim and strong sales, reportedly outselling the rest of the Top 10 albums combined with over 40,000 units sold. In addition to its success in the U.S., Songs of a Lost World also reached No. 1 on the UK Albums Chart, marking The Cure's first UK chart-topper in 32 years.

Robert Smith, The Cure’s iconic frontman, expressed gratitude to fans worldwide for their continued support. The band plans to tour extensively starting next year, with many speculating these could be their final shows as they approach their anticipated retirement in 2029.
