The highlights of tonight’s ‘Dark Wave’ on Sirius XM’s 1st Wave include a couple album cuts off The Cure’s ‘Disintegration,’ a Tones on Tail song that’s not ‘Go!,’ Shriekback’s excellent ‘My Spine Is the Bassline’ and Wax Trax! industrial act Braindead Soundmachine’s cover of Patsy Cline’s ‘Walkin’ After Midnight.’

Despite having split in 2008, The Mission UK returns this summer with a new compilation of rare B-sides, previously unreleased demos, new songs left over from the ‘God Is a Bullet’ sessions and a brand-new dance mix of ‘Dumb’ by late-period guitarist Mark Gemini Thwaite.

The highly anticipated 3CD expanded reissue of The Cure’s beloved 1989 album ‘Disintegration’ has been delayed yet again, with a new release date — in the U.S., at least — set for June 8, according to a press release from Rhino Records this afternoon.

With the long-awaited reissue of The Cure’s landmark ‘Disintegration’ now less than a month away, fans are getting their first taste of the bonus material via a just-leaked nine-track promo sampler that includes the never-before-heard outtake ‘Delirious Night.’

Promise Ring offshoot Maritime covers the Depeche Mode classic ‘Enjoy the Silence,’ with a keytar no less, for the A.V. Club’s ‘Undercover’ series.

The Cure’s Robert Smith turns 51 today, and to mark the occasion, we’ve assembled this playlist of the band’s long-out-of-print 1987 concert film ‘The Cure in Orange,’ which is finally due for a belated DVD release later this year.
