The Cult: Love 12"
The Cult is fronted by Ian Astbury on vocals and Billy Duffy on guitar. Their music and albums at this point need no introduction as they have cemented themselves over the years since they began in 1983, as one of the greatest rock bands around.Love was the Cultâs second album, originally released in 1985. It was their breakthrough and produced many singles including âRainâ, âRevolutionâ and the epic anthem âShe Sells Sanctuaryâ - songs that still resonate today - in fact âShe Sells Sanctuaryâ was recently featured in Season Two of the hit TV show Euphoria. The album eventually defined their career, but at the time, it flew in the face of everything that was going on in music.Ian discussed the sonic choice with Metal Hammer a few years ago: âThere were certain guidelines in the post-punk, new wave movement, and that was to stay clearly away from long hair and guitar solos,â says Ian Astbury. âSo for us that was like, âGreat! Thatâs exactly where weâre gonna start!â If thatâs where weâre not supposed to be according to some erudite journalist, then thatâs exactly where weâre starting. I wanted to find out what the taboo was all about. Then you hear Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin and The Doors, and suddenly itâs like, âWhat is this? Weâre not supposed to listen to this? Youâre kidding me!â Weâve always had a punk rock attitude, but itâs less reactionary and more dynamic. Rebels respond to a situation in a way thatâs not just being contrary, thereâs a visceral and energetic response.â
