I am a huge fan of the Cult... I would venture to say that "Electric" is one of the best rock albums ever made  

drummer from big country played on every track  on that album, except for sanctuary, and maybe rain. the guy had a nice swing to his playing that made the band sound great. whatever happened to him..? ( i wanna say he did some stuff with pete townsend, too - mark brynzinski, or something like that was his name, i think)  i like that album "love" alot, too - big neon glitter is my favorite track. i liked electric, too. after that, they kind of lost me - that ciao edie sh*t didnt do it for me. but electric and rain, and even some of the southern death cult stuff prior to rain was quite solid, imo. i still have all that vinyl - i bet those southern death cult eps are worth something nowadays - i wanna say they were on 4ad (cocteau twins label) at that time, but i am going from memory, and it was like twenty years ago  

The Cult were born in England, 1984 and are Ian Astbury on vocal and Billy Duffy on guitar. For nearly 25 years Love has been a consistent seller (over one million copies in Europe alone), endorsing it’s classic status in The Cult’s repertoire. The Cult will be performing Love Live in the USA and Canada during August and on selected European dates through September and October (see Omnibus Edition).

The Expanded Edition is a 2 disc set and is packaged in a slim-line jewel case inside a card slipcase, with new notes by the journalist James Brown (ex-editor of GQ).

“1985’s Love displayed a marked improvement over the Cult’s early material, and though it remains underappreciated in America (worldwide it was a smash), this exceptional record has actually aged better than the band’s more notorious (and equally important) releases: Electric and Sonic Temple. Equal parts psychedelic hard rock and new wave goth, the songs on Love emanate a bright guitar sheen, tight arrangements, crisp drumming, and a command performance from vocalist Ian Astbury, who as usual says a lot more with less than most singers. Overall, the album benefits from a wonderful sense of space, thanks in large part to guitarist Billy Duffy (who is much more subdued here than on future releases), whose restraint is especially notable on “Revolution” and the remarkably uncluttered title track. Duffy also provides compelling melodies (“Hollow Man,” “Revolution”), driving riffs (“Nirvana,” “The Phoenix”), and even a U2-like intro to “Big Neon Glitter.” Also on offer is the near-perfect “She Sells Sanctuary” and the smash hit “Rain,” quite possibly the band’s most appealing single ever. Considering the musical schizophrenia that would plague each subsequent Cult release, Love just may be the band’s purest moment.” – Eduardo Rivadavia – All Music Guide
