"The Head on the Door" est le sixième album studio du groupe The Cure, sorti le 13 août 19851. Un album résolument pop, qui permettra au groupe de se faire véritablement connaître dans le monde entier, et varié (guitare hispanique de The Blood, plus électrique de Push...), même si The Cure ne se départit pas de ses chansons spleen et mélancoliques (Sinking). Robert Smith écrit et compose seul l'intégralité des chansons parmi lesquelles "In Between Days" et "Close to Me" qui sortiront en singles et deviendront des tubes internationaux, bénéficiant de clips réalisés par Tim Pope qui seront très remarqués. L'album marque aussi le grand retour de Simon Gallup à la basse, tandis que Boris Williams s'installe à la batterie.
