The Cure played a career-spanning set to close Robert Smith’s festival Meltdown, over the weekend. The set saw The Cure play new music as well as deep cuts from their previous records.
28 songs were played, showcasing the best of the bands career. The songs were split into two different sets; with the band essentially playing two songs off each of their albums.
The first set,’From There to Here’, featured one song from each of their 13 studio albums; performed in chronological order. Closing the set was the unreleased song “It Can Never Be The Same”.
The second set, ‘From Here To There’ kicked off with the bands newest song “Step Into The Light” and worked its way backward through their discography.
