"Wild Mood Swings: Disintegrating The Cure Album by Album"/Martin Popoff [Episode 141]

Martin Popoff returns to the podcast. He’s got a brand-new book out titled Wild Mood Swings: Disintegrating The Cure Album By Album . Presented in a Q&A format, the book takes a critical analysis of The Cure’s 13 studio albums utilizing a panel of music critics who appeared on Martin’s video channel The Contrarians. As a bonus to the discussion, Martin created a detailed timeline linked to each album. This book will give long-time fans a new appreciation for the music created by this Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band fronted by Robert Smith. Martin and I get into a discussion of The Cure. Were they post-punk? Did they launch the gothic rock genre? We also get into a side discussion about bands and artists who’ve been around for a long time. Is there a point where their creative well runs dry? Join in on the discussion!
