Greatest Hits

Mandated by the conclusion of their long-standing contract with Fiction Records, this compilation updates their singles discography through the 1990s. While Robert Smith publicly opposed its release, the sequencing accurately reflects the group's massive commercial transition from sparse gothic rock into vibrant, stadium-filling alternative pop. Accompanied by two new tracks, it effectively summarizes their era of peak global visibility following 'Disintegration' and 'Wish'.
