That year, The Cure Easy The Cure tickets won a talent competition with the German label Hansa Records, and received a recording contract. Although The Cure recorded tracks for the company, none were ever released. Following disagreements in March of 1978 over the direction The Cure should take, the contract with Hansa was dissolved. Smith later recalled "We were very young. They just thought they could turn us into a teen group. They actually wanted us to do cover versions and we always refused." Thompson was dropped from The Cure that May, and the remaining trio (Smith/Tolhurst/Dempsey) was soon renamed The Cure by Smith. Later that month The Cure recorded their first sessions as a trio at Chestnut Studios in Sussex which were distributed as a demo tape to a dozen major record labels. The Cure demo found its way to Polydor Records scout Chris Parry, who signed The Cure to The Cure's newly formed Fiction label‰ÛÓdistributed by Polydor‰ÛÓin September 1978. However, as a stop-gap while Fiction finalised distribution arrangements with Polydor, on December 22, 1978 The Cure released their debut single "Killing an Arab" on the Small Wonder label. "Killing an Arab" garnered both acclaim and controversy: while the single's provocative title led to accusations of racism, the song is actually based on French existentialist Albert Camus' story The Cure Stranger. The Cure band placed a sticker label that denied the racist connotations on the single's 1979 reissue on Fiction. An early NME article on The Cure wrote that The Cure "are like a breath of fresh suburban air on the capital's smog-ridden pub and club circuit" and noted "With a John Peel session and more extensive London gigging on their immediate agenda, it remains to be seen whether or not The Cure can retain their refreshing joie de vivre."

The Cure were one of the first alternative bands to have chart and commercial success in an era before alternative rock had broken into the mainstream. In 1992 the NME declared The Cure had during the 1980s become "a goth hit machine (19 to date), an international phenomenon and, yep, the most successful alternative band that ever shuffled disconsolately about the earth."
In 1985, the new lineup‰ÛÓSmith, Tolhurst, Gallup, Thompson, and Williams‰ÛÓreleased The Cure Head on the Door, an album which managed to meld the melodic and pessimistic aspects of The Cure they had previously shifted between. The Cure Head on the Door reached #7 in the UK, made the Top 20 in several European charts and in Australia, and was The Cure's first entry into American Top 75 at #59, a success partly due to the international impact of the LP's two singles, "In Between Days" and "Close to Me". Following the album and further world tour, The Cure released the singles compilation Standing on a Beach in three formats (each with a different track listing and a specific name) in 1986. This compilation made the US Top 50, and saw the re-issue of three previous singles: "Boys Don't Cry" (in a new form), "Let's Go To Bed" and later "Charlotte Sometimes". This release was accompanied by VHS and LaserDisc called Staring at the Sea, which featured videos for each track on the compilation. The Cure toured to support the compilation and released a live concert VHS of the show, filmed in the south of France called The Cure in Orange. During this time, The Cure became a very popular band in Europe (particularly in France, Germany and the Benelux countries) and increasingly popular in the U.S., where the closing date of their tour in Los Angeles resulted in tragedy when a fan committed suicide by stabbing himself to death as The Cure took the stage.

It made a top ten debut on both sides of the Atlantic in July 2004 and debuted in the top 30 in Australia. To promote this album, The Cure headlined the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival that May. Between July 24 to August 29, The Cure headlined the Curiosa concert tour of North America. The Cure concert had two stages and featured a lineup, including Interpol, The Cure Rapture, and Mogwai on the main stage and the supporting bands such as Muse, Scarling. and Melissa Auf der Maur on the second stage, hand-picked by Smith himself. While attendances were lower than expected, Curiosa was still one of the more successful American summer festivals of 2004.
