Music On Mugs
Description: The Cure are an English rock band formed in Crawley in 1976 by Robert Smith (vocals, guitar) and Lol Tolhurst (drums). The band's current line-up comprises Smith, Perry Bamonte (guitar and keyboards), Reeves Gabrels (guitar), Simon Gallup (bass), Roger O'Donnell (keyboards), and Jason Cooper (drums). Smith has remained the only constant member throughout numerous line-up changes since the band's formation, including stints with guitarist Porl Thompson and drummer Boris Williams, though Gallup was absent for just six years of the band's history.
Description: The Compact Cassette, also known as the cassette tape, has a rich history that dates back to 1963 when Philips developed a more user-friendly alternative to cumbersome reel-to-reel formats for general audio recording. Japan's TDK significantly advanced this technology and released their SD (Super Dynamic) cassettes designed specifically for music in 1968. Their innovative efforts marked a watershed moment for music, both as an art form and as an industry. Once available to only the most dedicated and passionate music fans, high fidelity recordings became accessible to all with the advent of TDK’s cassette tapes. This 'Music Lives on TDK' design is a recreation of a 1987 promo tee that was given away with a multipack of blank cassette.

Description: The Cult are an English rock band formed in Bradford in 1983. Before settling on their current name in January 1984, the band had performed under the name Death Cult, which was an evolution of the name of lead vocalist Ian Astbury's previous band Southern Death Cult. They gained a dedicated following in the United Kingdom in the mid-1980s as a post-punk and gothic rock band, with singles such as "She Sells Sanctuary", before breaking into the mainstream in the United States in the late 1980s establishing themselves as a hard rock band with singles such as "Love Removal Machine".
Description: Milli Vanilli was a German-French R&B duo from Munich. The group was founded by Frank Farian in 1988 and consisted of Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus. Their debut album, All or Nothing in Europe, reconfigured as Girl You Know It's True in the United States, achieved international success and brought them a Grammy Award for Best New Artist on 21 February 1990. They became one of the most popular pop acts in the late 1980s and early 1990s, with millions of records sold. However, their success turned to infamy when it was discovered that Morvan and Pilatus did not sing any of the vocals on their music releases. They ended up returning their Grammy Award for Best New Artist.
