    It took a lot of simmering and experimenting to arrive at this near-masterpiece. .... Lost World just feels lived-in, its themes of mortality and memory amplified by the sheer scope of the arrangements, which are sculpted into skyscrapers of guitars and keyboards. The record is bookended by two new-classic Cure songs, peaking in both bleak sadness and meteor-shower splendor.

    The Cure emerged from the studio with a grand late-era statement, full of maturity and melancholy, but with an appropriate sort of wisdom.

    A sombre treatise on disaffection and alienation grown old, Songs From A Lost World starkly expresses the post-punk generation’s hallmark traits of malaise and anxiety. Art reflects its era and that’s exactly what this album conveys. [Dec 2024, p.74]
