Describing The Cure's sound is difficult because the band are genre chameleons and no two albums feature exactly the same style of songs; in fact many of their records experiment with different genres of music on the same release. The three main threads that run through their work are generally considered gothic pop, psychedelic rock, and jangle pop; although they frequently combine these genres on the same track. They're also often lumped in with "alternative music” despite predating that term.
