When they use the phrase “everything old is new again,” they are referring to The Cure. Despite never really going away, The Cure has seen a massive resurgence in popularity in the last few years, and now the band that started in 1976 has one, not one, but two Grammy Awards in 2026. The Cure took home the Grammys for Best Alternative Performance and Best Alternative Music Album.
In the Best Alternative Music Performance category, The Cure won out over “Everything Is Peaceful Love” – Bon Iver, “SEEIN’ STARS” – Turnstile, “mangetout” – Wet Leg, and “Parachute” – Hayley Williams.
And then in the Best Alternative Music Album, The Cure won with the album “Songs Of A Lost World” against “SABLE, fABLE” – Bon Iver, “DON’T TAP THE GLASS” – Tyler, The Creator, “moisturizer” – Wet Leg, “Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party” – Hayley Williams
The Cure have responded to their fans with the following statement:
SIMON, JASON, ROGER, REEVES AND I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE GRAMMY’S FOR THESE WONDERFUL AWARDS;
WE ARE VERY HONOURED TO RECEIVE THEM.
WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK;
EVERYONE WHO HELPED IN THE CREATION OF OUR SONGS OF A LOST WORLD ALBUM, PARTICULARLY CO-PRODUCER PAUL CORKETT;
EVERYONE IN THE UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP WHO WORKED SO HARD TO GET OUR LOST WORLD FOUND;
EVERYONE IN OUR MOSTLY INDEFATIGABLE CURE CREW, INCLUDING ALL THOSE AT PRIMARY AND CAA;
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, ALL THE CURE FANS AROUND THIS WORLD WHO CAME TO OUR LOST WORLD SHOWS AND ENJOYED OUR LOST WORLD MUSIC;
WITHOUT YOU, NONE OF THIS WOULD BE POSSIBLE.
