Their final album \"The Process\" was completed and released in early 1996, and quickly became a bridge that earned the band many new fans. After a 5 year absence, they reformed in 2000 for a one-off concert appearance at the Doomsday festival in Dresden, Germany (which has since been released as Back And Forth, Vol. 5 in 2001). The first studio album since their reformation \"The Greater Wrong Of The Right\" was released after years of anticipation in 2004. They embarked on a worldwide tour in support, and a DVD has been released documenting the North American leg. 2007 saw the release of \"Mythmaker\", and in 2011 the band released its final album with label SPV, \"hanDover\". They signed with Metropolis Records in 2012, and released the live album \"Bootlegged, Broke And In Solvent Seas\". The band released their 12th studio album \"Weapon\" on May 28, 2013.\"\nhttps://www.discogs.com/artist/11192-Skinny-Puppy\n\nSkinny Puppy is on their Farewell tour now!

the third remix album by The Cure. The album features 24 remixes of songs from the band's 2024 album Songs of a Lost World.\n\nThe band announced that all of its recording royalties of \"Mixes of a Lost World\" will benefit the charity War Child UK, that supports children living with the effects of war and conflict.\n\nJoyCut is an Italian electronic, dark wave, post-rock band based in Bologna. Their music includes a weaving of powerful sonic moments using a mass of electronics, orchestral breathings, cinematic saturations, tribal drumming, and industrial percussion with found objects from the urban landscape.\n\nThe band practice a green philosophy, and all of their production is 100% tied to a sustainable future. Frontman Pasco Pezzillo believes everyone’s responsibility as citizens is to speak out on issues of climate change, and that ties into their responsibility as a band to be vocal and implement real, tangible solutions towards sustainability.\n\nJoyCut spoke in-depth with Kevin Cole about climate change, which you can revisit here: https://tinyurl.com/bsukp7bs \n\nIn 2023, JoyCut performed a blisteringly glorious set for us in our Live Room here at KEXP; check it out here: https://tinyurl.com/27nbr2u6", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3658125, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3658125/?format=api", "airdate": "2026-05-22T16:29:01-07:00", "show": 66786, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/66786/?format=api", "image_uri": "https://dn710802.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-665ff6fa-46d0-3ed3-9c7e-ec508e850946/mbid-665ff6fa-46d0-3ed3-9c7e-ec508e850946-10200441071_thumb500.jpg", "thumbnail_uri": "https://dn710802.ca.archive.org/0/items/mbid-665ff6fa-46d0-3ed3-9c7e-ec508e850946/mbid-665ff6fa-46d0-3ed3-9c7e-ec508e850946-10200441071_thumb250.jpg", "song": "One Hundred Years", "track_id": "93a00bb5-715d-3d6a-b22a-212ef8469500", "recording_id": "a61fe0c4-8181-4496-8880-e970f4454b45", "artist": "The Cure", "artist_ids": [ "69ee3720-a7cb-4402-b48d-a02c366f2bcf" ], "album": "Pornography", "release_id": "665ff6fa-46d0-3ed3-9c7e-ec508e850946", "release_group_id": "5d4f8f19-23cf-34cf-b225-8cd0339c37de", "labels": [ "Rhino", "Fiction Records", "Elektra" ], "label_ids": [ "c4f2cf49-b57c-4cc1-8061-f54400704ac4", "f6182855-aa81-453a-a460-58c0fd71635d", "873f9f75-af68-4872-98e2-431058e4c9a9" ], "release_date": "2006-03-28", "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "how many cure songs could a cure song cure if a cure song could cure song?\n\nThe Cure's Pornography was borne out of frontman Robert Smith's depression, combined with the band's heavy drug use.
