Inspired by The Cure’s new release and New Order’s upcoming visit to Japan, we’ve crafted an 80s UK Rock Revival playlist.
It captures the shimmering pop sensibilities and romanticism that UK bands of that era have consistently explored in their beautifully decadent worlds. This collection focuses on hidden gems and recent works that carry that timeless aesthetic forward.
