With Gallup's departure from the Cure and Smith's work with Siouxsie and the Banshees, rumours spread that the Cure had broken up. In December 1982, Smith remarked to Melody Maker, "Do the Cure really exist any more? I've been pondering that question myself ... it has got to a point where I don't fancy working in that format again." He added, "Whatever happens, it won't be me, Laurence and Simon together any more. I know that." [50] The albums that followed, Faith (1981) and Pornography (1982), did not receive any great commercial or critical success, but instead helped in developing a devoted cult following. However, there were tensions in the band and Gallup exited in 1982. When Smith joined the Banshees in 1983, The Cure were briefly inactive, with Smith also collaborating on an album with Banshees' Steve Severin under the name of The Glove.

And that's just the music, the physical LP. There is something behind this album that makes it so much larger than life...

When the tour ended in October 1989, Smith announced he wanted nothing more to do with recording, promoting and touring for an album. “It’s reached a stage where I personally can’t cope with it,” he said, “so I’ve decided this is the last time we’re gonna tour.”
