REASONS

TO GO SEE

THE CULT

1 They’re the nearest Britain’s got to Guns’n’Roses Ridiculously overblown yet fantastic cock rock. revolving door line-up policy. countless lawsuits. a 20-year trail of destruction and a lead singer with a messiah complex. Sound familiar? They were also once supported by an unknown G'n'R, who pinched their drummer.

2 It’s like Jim Morrison risen from the grave Singer Ian Astbury is seriously obsessed with the Lizard King. turning down the role in Oliver Stone's film The Doors cos he didn‘t like how St Jim was being represented. He got to live out the dream. though, singing on tour with some of the remaining members as The Doors a few years back.

3 They contain Manchester City’s biggest fan Guitarist Billy Duffy. the only other constant member besides Astbury. is so obsessed with the light blues that for a while he would only play guitar with correctly coloured picks embossed with the club crest.

4 They wrote a stonewall classic goth album 1985’s Love brought goth into the mainstream with hit singles ‘She Sells Sanctuary“ and ‘Rain'. Not content. they completely changed direction, and trumped themselves a hundredlold (see below).

5 Then they wrote an even stonerswall classic rock album Electric was a stupendous record. made from 100%-prooi distilled AC/DC and Aerosmith. which went on to sell millions. The Rick Rubin- produced howling, gonzo daitness ol ‘Wildilower'. ‘Lil Devil' and ‘Love Removal Machine‘ should be a staple in every aSpiring rock kid's riti repertoire. (Doug Johnstone)
