Steve Lamacq plays The Cure's eighth studio album Disintegration in full.
Released in 1989, Disintegration was recorded at Hookend Studios in Oxfordshire at a time when Robert Smith was nearing the age of 30 and reportedly 'mortified' at how big the band had become. He was in a mood he later described as 'one of my non-talking modes' and there was growing friction in the band. The resulting record moved away from the quirky, skewed pop they had released earleir in the decade but was a huge success. The single Lovesong reached number two in the US singles chart and the album went top five in the UK. Despite Robert's horror, it pushed them to even more success across the world.
