what if.... when they do come out with a new album, we get a little Reeves on back up vocals? What do you think, a Robert/Reeves mix? Would they sound good together?
Not sure that would happen. The only time they've used backing vocals before it was on I'm Cold & you could barely hear Siouxsie there. Studio wise, Robert would maybe use multiple tracks of himself, but I am struggling to think of any other The Cure record with backing vocals on.
As usual, it's not what if they use guests for backing vocals, it's what they do with these backing vocals, it has to make sense, not just for the sole pleasure of having a friend on the track. Well, it's personnal taste. Having Reeves on wrong number was... I hate this song. Now i feel Reeves is ok as the current guitarist. just say yes was rather a duet. there was another track with backing vocals, Caroline Crawley, from Shelleyan orphan, did some on a b/c side on one of the Wish singles, listen to them and try to hear which one. Don't cheat.
I'd just like an old styled album 8 or 9 songs of dark cure like faith/porn/bloodlowers
We know they already have some great moodier songs like please come home/boy i never knew/it can never be the same, would be fab to hear an album of 8 of those darker songs.
