Everyone born between 1970 and 1980 has undergone a THE CURE
brainwashing, voluntary or not, filled with genius songwriting pearls by
Robert Smith & co. Whereas other bands that grew up alongside with
them ended up with albums that no longer stand the test of fandom, THE
CURE has been able to maintain an overall quality throughout the years,
constantly offering unforgettable extended live shows made of nostalgic
classic mixed with newer songs, and always reminding us that the unique
"THE CURE magic" has remained intact!
Today the Alfa Matrix label roster is paying homage to this great and
unique band: THE CURE, choosing classic radio hits but also songs that
are less known to the public-at-large but which deserve even more to be
heard again, showing that the songs written by Robert Smith and
current/ex-members also lend themselves to different music style
treatments... All electronic music genres have their very own
ambassadors on this 31-track double CD compilation from electro dance to
pop rock through dark elektro and modern EBM. Compiled by and for THE
CURE fans, "A Strange Play - a tribute to The Cure" will offer you
astounding interpretations of classic hits like "A Forest" (MARI
CHROME), "Just Like Heaven" (LOVELORN DOLLS), "Charlotte Sometimes"
(KANT KINO), "Lullaby" (CYNICAL EXISTENCE), "The Walk" (STAR INDUSTRY),
"The Lovecats" (JUNKSISTA), "Fascination Street" (ZOMBIE GIRL),
"Lovesong" (SEBASTIAN KOMOR), "Close To Me" (METROLAND), "Pictures Of
You" (DIFFUZION), "Why Can't I Be You" (PLASTIC NOISE EXPERIENCE), etc.
But some Alfa Matrix bands also dug deeper within THE CURE's huge
discography and vast repertoire of songs, covering tracks like "In Your
House" (ALIEN VAMPIRES), "Jumping Someone Else's Train" (KANT KINO),
"Cold" (TOTEM OBSCURA), "The Drowning Man" (TECHNOIR), "A Strange Day"
(AIBOFORCEN), Lament (MONDTRÄUME), "The Figurehead" (SCHWARTZBLUT), "A
Night Like This" (XMH), "The Baby Screams" (ARMAGEDDON DILDOS), "Fight"
(I:SCINTILLA), "Anniversary" (AESTHETISCHE), "Burn" (HELALYN FLOWERS
& ESSENCE OF MIND), "Friday I'm In Love" (COSMIC ARMCHAIR), "Prayers
For Rain" (HALO IN REVERSE & REGENERATOR), "Disintegration"
(AVARICE IN AUDIO), "Trust" (ACYLUM), "All Cats Are Grey" (AIBOFORCEN),
or yet "Sleep When I'm Dead" (NEIKKA RPM).
THE CURE was, is, and will continue to be a major influence and
reference, conscious or not, for many underground artists and music
lovers. We hope that together with us you will rediscover THE CURE in a
way you didn't expect, cruising through their vast catalogue in
different soundscapes but always remaining faithful to the band's darker
sound.
