The Cure – The Show of a Lost World: Troxy Live 2024 (2025)
Filed Under: indie-pop, indie-rock, live by driX — Leave a comment
February 18, 2026

On November 1, 2024, The Cure released Songs of a Lost World and that same night, they performed the album in full at London’s Troxy for 3,000 fans,
while more than a million others tuned in via a free global livestream.
That performance has now been transformed into The Show of a Lost World, a recut, remixed, and remastered concert film that presents all 31 songs from the night across a
generous two hours and forty-seven minutes. Directed by Nick Wickham, with a new surround sound mix by Robert Smith, the film upgrades the original broadcast into a cinematic
experience that does justice to both the intimacy of the venue and the scale of the band’s legacy.
Beyond the novelty of premiering their first studio album in 16 years on release day, the show is striking for its setting. Although the Troxy holds only 3,000 people,
The Cure’s natural habitat for decades has been stadiums and vast outdoor spaces. Wickham-who previously directed the band’s Meltdown performance film Curaetion-25—understands
how to make intimacy feel epic. The film opens with a static, wide shot from the back of the hall, the stage slowly emerging from darkness,
lit only by the glow of audience phones, before drifting forward as the band begin with “Alone.” It’s a subtle but effective piece of visual storytelling
that mirrors the music’s gradual, immersive pull.
The lineup—Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Jason Cooper, Roger O’Donnell, Reeves Gabrels, and Perry Bamonte—plays with a focus and assurance that feels almost suspended in time.
Although Songs of a Lost World accounts for just over a quarter of the set, the newest song in the remainder of the show dates back to 1994’s “Burn.”
And yet, nothing here feels like a museum piece. The Cure sound timeless, as if the three decades between “Burn” and their latest album have barely registered.
Smith’s voice, in particular, remains remarkably intact: full, expressive, and powerful, without the slowed tempos or lowered keys that betray so many of their peers.
The band’s sound is unmistakably live—warm, separated, and crisp—without losing any of its atmospheric depth.
The film thrives on close attention to detail. Wickham’s camera work respects the band’s famously minimal stage movement by getting in close:
we see Jason Cooper’s drinks trembling on a monitor stack as he locks into the fluid rhythms of the new material, and later catch his grin during “Just Like Heaven.”
Throughout, the contrast between Reeves Gabrels’ professorial calm and Simon Gallup’s feral bass presence becomes a quiet double act.
Gallup, pivotal to The Cure’s identity, commands attention with both style and movement—first in a high-collared leopard-print coat for the set’s darker opening,
later cutting loose in a white vest during the ’85–’94 run, skipping and stalking the stage like a biker-booted praying mantis.
As with any great concert film, part of the pleasure lies in the tiny deviations from the studio versions: a guitar solo that shreds a little harder on
“A Night Like This,” subtle shifts in tone, small, human imperfections. There’s even a brief moment of confusion during “Friday I’m in Love,”
when something goes awry and the band exchange bemused looks before snapping back into place. These ripples are reassuring, proof that “recut, remixed, and remastered”
doesn’t mean sterilized or re-recorded. This is still a living performance.
Ultimately, The Show of a Lost World is an indulgence for the faithful—but The Cure’s congregation remains vast. “We’ve run out of time,”
Robert Smith jokes before closing with “Boys Don’t Cry.” “I mean, just for tonight.” He has spoken of retiring in 2029, but this film makes one thing clear:
The Cure are not fading into nostalgia. They remain a band capable of making the intimate feel epic, the familiar feel alive,
and the past and present feel like parts of the same, enduring moment.
