Bloodflowers is the eleventh studio album by English rock band The Cure. It was first released in Japan on 2 February 2000,[2] before being released in the UK and Europe on 14 February 2000 and then the day after in the US by Fiction Records and Polydor Records. Initially the album was to be released in 1999, as it had been completed by May that year, but the record company wanted it to be released “post millennial fever.”[3]
Singer and frontman Robert Smith chose to not release any single from the album, against the will of the record company, which Smith has said was an act of "revenge" due to his dissatisfaction towards the lack of promotion the band's previously released compilation Galore (1997) received from the record company due to conflicts of interests.[4] However, "Maybe Someday" and "Out of This World" were issued as promotional singles to radio in the UK, US, Canada and numerous territories in Europe.
