The Cure on Vinyl

The Cure come from Crawley in the south of England and released their first album in 1979. Led by singer and guitarist Robert Smith, the band first shaped dark post-punk and later found its own, often dreamy wave pop. Their most important albums include “Seventeen Seconds” (1980), “Faith” (1981), “Pornography” (1982), “The Head On The Door” (1985) and “Disintegration” (1989); “Songs Of A Lost World” followed in 2024.

Here you'll find The Cure records, including German original pressings from the 80s, the singles compilation “Japanese Whispers”, 12-inch maxi singles such as “Lovesong” or “Charlotte Sometimes”, 7-inch singles and reissues all the way to Record Store Day picture discs. Every used record is graded to the Goldmine standard, and the photos show the actual copy.

FAQ about The Cure

Which Cure albums are considered classics?
The early, dark trilogy “Seventeen Seconds” (1980), “Faith” (1981) and “Pornography” (1982), as well as “Disintegration” (1989). If you prefer a poppier sound, start with “The Head On The Door” (1985) or the compilation “Japanese Whispers” (1983).

Is an 80s original pressing worth it compared to a reissue?
The originals were released in the UK on Fiction Records and pressed under licence in many countries, including Germany. They are popular with collectors, while reissues are often the more affordable choice for listening. Sound and value depend mainly on condition, which we state for every record.

Are there maxi singles by The Cure?
Yes, many singles came out on 12-inch with longer versions, such as “Lovesong” as an extended mix. You'll find more maxis under 12" Maxi Singles.
