The Cure will release their new album, Songs Of A Lost World on November 1st via Fiction/Capitol Records. The album, their 14th studio release, is their first in 16 years. Songs from the record were previewed during The Cure’s Shows Of A Lost World tour. Ahead of the album’s arrival. the legendary UK band have shared “A Fragile Thing.”

Robert Smith says of “A Fragile Thing,” “A Fragile Thing is driven by the difficulties we face in choosing between mutually exclusive needs and how we deal with the futile regret that can follow these choices, however sure we are that the right choices have been made… it can often be very hard to be the person that you really need to be.”

Songs Of A Lost World was written and arranged by Robert Smith, produced and mixed by Robert Smith & Paul Corkett and performed by The Cure – Robert Smith: Voice / guitar / 6string bass / keyboard, Simon Gallup: Bass, Jason Cooper: Drums / percussion, Roger O’Donnell: Keyboard, Reeves Gabrels: Guitar. The album was recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales.

Robert Smith created the sleeve concept, and Andy Vella, a long-time Cure collaborator, handled the album’s art and design. The cover art features “Bagatelle”, a 1975 sculpture by Janez Pirnat.
