However, frontman Robert Smith wasn’t particularly happy with the situation. With an existential crisis looming over his past discography and a newfound interest in taking LSD regularly, Smith decided to push the band backward, rather than forward. One would think this might lead to the band’s downfall. In a way, it did. In 1989, The Cure produced the greatest album of their career, Disintegration.

The United States of America celebrated its 200th anniversary in 1976. The Bicentennial, as it was called, came in an unsettled time, the aftermath of Vietnam and Watergate, a time of rising inflation and other troubles. Two years from now, the United States celebrates its 250th. Apparently, that is called the Semiquincentennial. Quincentennial is 500, so Semiquincentennial optimistically says we're halfway there. Years ago, Congress established the U.S. Semiquincentennial Commission to plan the celebration. I asked Rosie Rios about that. She is leading the planning as chair of what is also called America250.

Get ready: America's big 250th birthday celebrations are just 2 years away
