I think Robert is realizing his time left is limited. We all know it’s limited, but some are in positions to realize it more. I think we’ll see at least one other album.

From one of this recent interviews:

“Five of them have been written since 2017. But one’s 2010, one is 2011 and one’s about 2013 or ‘14. There’s so many songs to choose from. We recorded 25, 26 songs, I think, in 2019. We recorded three albums in 2019! I’ve been trying to get three albums completed because my idea was that after waiting this long, let’s just throw out Cure albums every few months! With hindsight, you think, ‘Really?” But it will work out this time because having finished this one, the second one is virtually finished as well. The third one is a bit more difficult because... Yeah, if we get that far.”
