Legati da un forte amore per la musica, hanno formato una band e iniziato a esibirsi nel circuito dei pub locali, sviluppando allo stesso tempo uno stile e delle sonorità uniche e personali. Nascono così i The Cure, leggende del post-punk e tra le band più importanti del rock britannico di tutti i tempi.
