NOW we're talking. "Brother Wolf, Sister Moon" or any track off _Love_ (1985) will save your soul. 🙏🔥🙏 You asked: *The Cult* are legend & came up through the Post-Punk Manchester & early 80s Goth scene. Kinda like Bowie, every 80s-90s Cult album is a slightly different Rock genre. 1984's _Dreamtime_ is Goth - _Live At The Lyceum_ is one of the greatest live albums of all time 1985's _Love_ - their big breakthrough & THE best album of the 1980s IMO - is Goth-y Psychedelic Rock 1987's _Electric_ (with "Love Removal Machine") was a big shift, adopting a more mainstream AC/DC Rock sound 1989's _Sonic Temple_ was their big American MTV Stadium Rock/Hair Metal album & biggest seller. They opened for Metallica that Summer. They kinda lost their way when Grunge hit, broke up in the mid-90s, reformed in the late 90s, Ian briefly replaced Jim Morrison on a reunited Doors tour. The Cult (primarily Ian & Billy) never stopped touring, still release the occasional album, they still play to packed houses globally, their early, seminal albums continue to be loved & respected, & their music is still being rediscovered & used in movies. I've seen them play maybe 7 times, from 1989 to a few years ago. Always 🔥 and they've quietly had one the most loyal fanbases in Rock outside of The Grateful Dead. Further listening: "Brother Wolf, Sister Moon" "She Sells Sanctuary" "The Phoenix" _Love_ in it's entirety, really (recommended) "Resurrection Joe" "Wild Flower" "Soul Asylum" "Fire Woman" "Horse Nation" "Edie (Ciao Baby)"

The Southern Death Cult was not really a part of The Cult's history as a band though. None of the members of TSDC, other than Astbury, went on to be in Death Cult or The Cult. The only things TSDC shares in common with The Cult is Astbury's vocals and the word "Cult" in their name. TSDC was a totally different entity apart from DC and TC. Although I like The Cult's music quite a bit, it's too bad that The Cult lost it's Post Punk/Goth roots and became just another typical rock band. Even Astbury himself lamented that fact and said so in an old interview. it would be really cool to hear The Cult play Death Cult songs as well. Rumor has it that there may be a TSDC reunion in the works but, nothing's been confirmed as of yet...

The Cult was sort of a pop/punk British band before they came to the US. They were also known as Death Cult. They formed officially as The Cult in 1984, though they were around a few years before that as Death Cult. A change was going on in 1985 and '86 Hard Rock and Heavy Metal music was getting all the radio airplay like Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and in 1987 Gun n Roses debut with Appetite for Destruction was crushing. So when the Cult went to record their third album Electric (1987) he(Ian Astbury)wanted it to be a little more hard rock than their previous two albums, so they hooked up with producer Rick Rubin who drastically changed their sound. Rick Rubin supposedly told them if you want to continue to record silly English pop don't listen to me if you want to rock then do. Personally, I like both versions of The Cult, they followed up Electric (1987) with Sonic Temple (1989) which I'm my opinion was better than Electric. It was also still a heavier version of themselves. They eventually reverted a bit back in the next two albums Ceromony (1991) and The Cult (1994) which are both great records in their own way.

The Cult formerly forged in 1983. The Band has gone through a few member changes but was highly influential in it's sound. The Cult Best Of highlights the diversity and awesomeness of the Cult. She Sells Sanctuary and Firewoman are two are the best known hits besides Love Removal Machine. Ian Astbury the Singer says the Doors and the song "The End" blew his mind when he heard the song in the film Apocalypse Now and it was a life changing experience. Actually the Cult's live performance at the American Music Awards of Firewoman was a sight to see as you could see the major artists of the day sitting in the audience including Steven Tyler and Joe Perry loving that performance and digging it. They are a GREAT Band and one of the few that was actually considered Progressive vs. just a Hair or Metal Band back in the Day. The Large Music Retailers in the Day like Spec's Music has the Band in the Progressive Section of Music. So you might say they were ahead of their time but when you listen to a lot of their musical tracks you understand why and you can hear their influence in bands that came out that time period and beyond.

In 1981 the Cult was called the Southern Death Cult. They later changed the name to the cult in 83 when they merged into mainstream music in the US. Before they were a punk goth type sound. Theyve had approximately 22 different members in and out of the band over decades. Ian and Billy Duffy have been consistant as far as 'The Cult' goes. Theyve had 10 studio albums two live albums t compilation albums 3 box sets and 41 singles released to date. They are as good live as they are in the studio. They tend to feed off of the crowd and how theyre being received. Theyre great in smaller venues. I have personally seen Ian stop in the middle of a song and ask wtf? He promised they wouldnt play another song until the crowd got into it. He said "i thought i we were in Dallas Texas. This myst be fu#$ing Oklahoma!" Everyone went bat shit and they started playing. Great show. They split right after that one for some time.

I remember when I first heard of them, they were called Southern Death Cult, then Death Cult and finally The Cult when they made the big leagues. Ian Ashbury was heavily influenced by The Doors. Saw them here in Montreal back in the day when they opened for Billy Idol. Still have the ticket stub. Good times.

Love The Cult....formed in the Mid 80's. Ian was also the lead singer for The Doors of the 21st Century along with former Doors members Ray Manzarek & Robbie Krieger. Loved Edie, Sweet Soul Sister, & Fire Woman.

The Cult was most popular in 80's and early 90's. I am sure you have heard the song Fire Woman, it was their most popular song by far.

They released their first album in 1983, when AC/DC had almost a ten years carreer. This song is from their third album, called 'Electric' (1987).

You need to go earlier than this and no they weren't like AC/DC, they did an album that sounded a lot like that style of music but they had their own style as well. -She Sells Sanctuary -Rain -American Horse -Fire Woman Seriously you got to do a few of these songs for this channel ,you're going to dig them ✌️👍👊🤘

The Cult broke in the US around 1985 with their Love album, they were considered a "New Wave" band. But they collaborated with Rick Rubin on their next album "Electric" which is the album this song is from, their sound definitely became more Rock influenced with new producer Rubin. Then they released their biggest commercially successful album "Sonic Temple" which their highest charted US song "Fire Woman". Lead singer Ian Astbury toured with the original members of the Doors in the late 1990s-early 2000s. Billy Duffy and his white Gretsch Falcon guitar is one the most underrated guitarist of that era in my opinion. Billy and Ian were and still are the core of the band and are still creating new music and touring today! The Cult is my favorite band of all time!!

The Cult was an unusual band for the 80s. When hair metal, new wave and synthpop ruled the airwaves, they rocked sort of a 60s retro vibe. They should have fit right in in the 90s, but sadly that didn't seem to happen since everything "80s" was automatically scrapped as soon as grunge happened.

They were a huge college rock band from the mid eighties to mid nineties. The started as the Southern Death Cult, then Death Cult and the The Cult. I saw them in 1989 open for Metallica on their And Justice for All tour. That show was insane. They were a huge hit in Europe charting several top 10 hits. In the 80’s they hooked up with producer Rick Rubin (of Beastie Boys and Slayer fame) who really took their sound to the next level. Never really got as popular as their talent and music was due.
