THE CULT / SHE SELLS SANCTUARY on

[@Gingster]

The sickest 80's song ever! This song overshadowed a lot of 80's bands.

[@randalltyer5591]

Yes it did. It steered many of us away from the hair metal invasion into music with far more depth that would eventually be the " first wave " and then " alternative " and a deeper level of punk even..

[@hectorccruzer]

indeed, when I hear i-- my first thought is - this is me looking back on my 80's

He was drum tech for Charlie Bennante of Anthrax before all of that, while brother Mike Tempesta was Scott Ian's guitar tech at the same time. He went on to Powerman 5000 with Rob Zombie's little bro, Spider (Mike Cummings). Nepotism overload, but you gotta do what you gotta do to get a gig.
