THE CURE - ROBERT SMITH SET FOR BLINK-182 COLLABORATION?

Punk pranksters BLINK-182 are set to team up with THE CURE frontman ROBERT SMITH and DJ SHADOW on their new album USE YOUR ERECTION.

The British goth superstar is in negotiations to work with the ROCK SHOW hitmakers on the new project, and drummer TRAVIS BARKER insists DJ Shadow is already signed up.

Barker says, "We just got a lot of people who we love and we look up to. Robert's collaboration is a super downer. I mean, there's some dark songs on the record. It's pretty cool."
