Gugny Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 (edited) The Cult will be going on a world tour, playing the entire "Electric" album at each show. This Rick Rubin-produced gem is one of the best albums of all time, in my opinion. I saw them in concert during the original "Electric" tour (opened for Billy Idol in Saratoga) and it was awesome. Ian Astbury threw a fit because they were forced to play while it was still light out and there was hardly anyone there. That was so long ago, I think I might just have to make the trip to NYC in August to catch this. http://thecult.us/main/ Edited May 13, 2013 by Fig Newtons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not nearly as much as Love or Electric, but I thought it was decent. And I agree that Edie is a phenomenal tune. Their latest album is not a far departure from Electric or Sonic Temple - it's actually very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 One of my all-time favorite tunes is She Sells Sanctuary. These guys are pretty old now. I don't think I'd see them in concert for fear of looking like old guys hanging on to past glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
