The Cure picked up the 2009 Godlike Genius award at the Shockwaves NME Awards in London last night.
Robert Smith’s band received the award from Hollywood director Tim Burton and NME Editor Conor McNicholas at the ceremony, which took place at the O2 Academy Brixton.
Elsewhere, despite being 15 years past their best, Oasis won Best British Band. Go on, hammer me in the comments for saying that.
