The Cure have revealed the full tracklisting for new album ‘Songs Of A Lost World’ alongside new single ‘A Fragile Thing’.

The new full-length is due out on 01 November 2024 on Polydor/Fiction and will be the band’s first new album in 16 years and 14th studio release to date.

‘A Fragile Thing’ is the second track to be taken from The Cure’s long-awaited new record. The English post-punk rock group previewed their new songs during their 90-date, 33-country ‘Shows Of A Lost World’ tour, for more than 1.3 million people to overwhelming fan and critical acclaim.

Frontman Robert Smith commented, “A Fragile Thing is driven by the difficulties we face in choosing between mutually exclusive needs and how we deal with the futile regret that can follow these choices, however sure we are that the right choices have been made… it can often be very hard to be the person that you really need to be.”
