Description:
Hailing from Crawley and London, The Cure’s sixth album marks both a creative and commercial breakthrough. With fresh lineup changes—Simon Gallup returns on bass and Boris Williams debuts on drums—the band blends moody textures with melodic pop hooks. Tracks like “In Between Days” and “Close to Me” showcase their shift toward accessible songcraft without losing lyrical depth. Originally released in August 1985, The Head on the Door bridges goth roots and mainstream appeal, influencing 1980s alternative rock. This 180 g R1 reissue preserves every nuanced guitar shimmer and lyrical introspection, making it a vital addition for those tracing The Cure’s evolution.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
