From Pitchfork:
The band that soundtracked a million broken hearts shows no signs of breaking up themselves. According to NME.com, last Friday at Spain\'s Benicassim Festival, the Cure announced that they plan to release a new album next year. Robert Smith let it slip during the band's two-hour set: "We want to start recording in October/November and get it out by my birthday next year, which I know is quite cheesy," he said. By the way, Smith turns 47 on April 21, 2006, which might make you feel old if seeing Francis Bean in full Olsen-wear and makeup didn't already do that for you.
Smith also said that he planned on working on material with former Siouxsie and the Banshees bassist and songwriter Steve Severin, who has released two solo albums, a film soundtrack, and a book of erotic poetry and prose among other writings since the Banshees called it quits in 1996. "I'm not sure though," he added. "We might kill each other!"
