Welcome to the forum!

Yes and no. The posts in this topic are telling about it.

Personally, I always cringe when people say to me "you like the Cure, you certainly would like..." and mostly they name a band I don't like at all.

Im a big fan of death metal myself,some bands I like are cannible corpse,deicide,cryptopsy,obituary,mortician and a lot more! I do like some emo bands as well,not much tho. I love new wave bands as well, but I guess my second favorite genre is death metal,I consider the cure it's own genre to be honest,it's very complex and every album is completely different from another,the reason I absolutely adore the cure!💗💗☺️

Very true, you can't "pin down" The Cure to just one genre. (They may have started out with "post-punk" or "new wave" & a bit of "goth", but soon "pop" and "psychedelia" were part of the whole mix too...)

Welcome @Metallica_Ashllyzz! 

Your tastes sound like mine when I was a teenager, I listened to (almost) anything from pop to (hard) rock & metal, but my true love was always (post-)punk & new wave.

(Later when I grew up, I got rid of most of the pop & metal...) 

Nowadays I can listen to anything from classical to jazz, from folk & country to blues-rock, from singer-songwriters like Leonard Cohen to instrumental (post-)rock bands like Mogwai. Depends on my mood etc.
