4:13 Dream is the thirteenth studio album by English rock band The Cure. After failing to meet several release dates, the album was released on 27 October 2008 by Geffen Records.

The thirteenth studio album by The Cure was originally intended to be a double album; however, frontman Robert Smith confirmed in interviews that this idea was scrapped, despite the fact that 33 songs had been recorded. Some songs featured on the album were recycled from earlier album sessions: an example is "Sleep When I'm Dead", which was originally written for the band's 1985 album The Head on the Door. Smith attested that the album would mostly comprise the upbeat songs the band recorded, while the darker songs may be released on another album.

On 1 May 2008, The Cure, via their MySpace profile, posted a bulletin in which they confirmed that the album would be released on 13 September. The bulletin also said that the thirteenth day of each month leading up to the release of the album (May, June, July and August) would see the release of a single from the album, as well as B-sides that would not make the final cut. The first single, "The Only One", was released on 13 May, followed by "Freakshow" on 13 June. "Sleep When I'm Dead" was then released on 13 July, followed by the fourth and final single, "The Perfect Boy", which was released on 13 August. On 16 July, Robert Smith announced that the album would be pushed back to 13 October, and in September's place, an EP was released containing remixes of the four singles from 4:13 Dream, entitled Hypnagogic States. The album's release date was delayed yet again, and it was released on 27 October.
