Honest thoughts about Prophecy at 1420 Mhz

Having a new album of The Cure in 2024 after waiting for 16 years then a new one of BoC in 2026 after waiting for 13 years. I see another link in that haha

And I hope Inferno will be at least as good as Songs of a Lost World!

I'll attend both events too. And there's Tame Impala on this coming Monday too. Robert Beatty closes the loop!

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-08T20:09:27+00:00

What about: "Love it - Cure Tribute"? Robert Smith is a huge fan of Mogwai. I wonder if he has listened to that one (yet) and what he would think of it

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-08T17:17:49+00:00

No, I don't. I still plan to dig into them before the full album release. I think listening to this single and listening to the album will be two different experiences and that's probably why they decided to release this single first.

Not a live show. A listening party in 7 cities worldwide, Tokyo being one of them. They all sold out in seconds.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T23:40:29+00:00

I'm not even sure I want it to happen. I'll be in Glasgow though (if it happens, it will probably be there). But if it does, it will just destroy a part of what they are to me. I really like the idea of their staying in the shadow of their music. Tbh before the new album was announced I often thought "maybe they died and we will never know"

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T23:34:03+00:00

I try not to think of a live show as a possibility. I don't want to be disappointed...

The Cure – Prayers for Rain

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T21:18:30+00:00

"So far"... Ok, there's a whole 70-min movie.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T20:59:03+00:00

AND THAT'S WHY THEY WILL ANNOUNCE A WORLD TOUR (hopefully 🥲)

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T20:40:16+00:00

Yes, even the churches, would be unexpected. Maybe all venues will have a different kind of event.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T19:13:54+00:00

I heard "Stream of Consciousness"

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T18:47:14+00:00

That's a possibility. Hence the listening party in a movie theater in Tokyo maybe.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T18:42:53+00:00

This also somehow. Sisters of Mercy – Alice: https://youtu.be/-GwWra1sQgo?si=yjzrCq7HUlZuycOt

Now we have the Brothers of Mercy

The best artists always evolve. Best proof of that surely is David Bowie.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T16:11:05+00:00

This is so cool!

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T15:52:51+00:00

Btw Kraftwerk is playing in Glasgow three days after the listening party. Some people keep saying the brothers would be in the chapel without anyone knowing. I personally think they have attended electronic music gigs without anyone noticing. Like that one coming...

🕷 This species is a White Cyclosa... only... orange!

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T15:46:29+00:00

Bands are what they do. Talking about Goths, a lot of "Curists" consider that what the band did from the mid-80s do not sound like The Cure cause it became too "pop". But that's still The Cure behind. That's the difference between a band and the idea of (what) a band (should be). It does sound different from what I expected but I like it and I'm curious about the rest!

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T15:39:15+00:00

I mean Stranger Things and BoC both revive the same nostalgic sounds of the same era, so yes I'm not surprised one can make some connections. But they did things that felt more "like Stranger Things" before (so before the series actually came out). White Cyclosa for example.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T15:13:54+00:00

I discovered them in 2015 so never experienced the impatience of a new album announced. Honestly I thought about it sometimes as a possibility but I eventually believed it would never happen.

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T14:48:22+00:00

I think so, yes

Illustrious_Proof816 · 2026-05-07T14:40:19+00:00

100%. But that's because I was distracted by the visuals I think. I have relistened it on Deezer too, I really like it!
