The British rock band The Cure has been honored with a place in the Hollywood Rockwalk.

The band's five members placed their hands in concrete Friday to be installed outside the original Guitar Center store on Sunset Boulevard, joining other music legends such as Chuck Berry, Los Lobos, The Ramones and Van Halen.

The Cure's signature melancholy sound influenced numerous other acts in the years following its founding in 1976.
