The Cure have announced a deluxe 30th anniversary edition of their 1992 album Wish, which will feature 24 previously unreleased tracks.

News of the 30th anniversary edition of Wish arrives alongside "Uyea Sound (Dim-D mix)", which only previously appeared on a mail-order only 1993 cassette titled Lost Wishes.

The Cure's deluxe version of Wish will also include the other three tracks featured on Lost Wishes, as well as 24 previously unreleased songs.

Robert Smith said of the album in a press release, "The overall sound was in my head from the start. We used a pretty small palette of sounds, as we did with Disintegration, but managed to create a lot of different kinds of song with it. I think Kiss Me was more of a reference than Disintegration.

He added, "There’s a side to the album which I had kind of forgotten, a very gentle, yearning thing which is quite beautiful. "Trust" is one of the best things we’ve ever done I think, it’s played with great feeling, and "To Wish Impossible Things" is another gorgeous, melancholic piece… in fact it could well be my favourite song on the record."

"Uyea Sound (Dim-D mix)" is out now. The Cure's 30th anniversary deluxe edition of Wish will be released on 7 October via UMC/Fiction Records/Polydor, and is available to pre-order now.
