text: Editorial Reviews 2019 marks the 30th anniversary of The Cult's seminal album SONIC TEMPLE. On September 13th, Beggars Arkive will reissue the album. Now cut onto two pieces of black vinyl, the audio is improved and contains 16 tracks total, which comprise the original album plus 6 B-sides. In addition to the reissue, a box set and 5-CD set are also being released. Originally released in 1989, Sonic Temple proved to be a pivotal moment for both band and the wider rock scene. Produced by the legendary Bob Rock, Sonic Temple had four chart-topping singles; "Fire Woman", "Edie (Ciao Baby)", "Sun King" and "Sweet Soul Sister". In a recent interview about the album, Ian Astbury explained how the band brought together hard rock and indie rock to create the unique, game-changing sounds on Sonic Temple. "We wanted to retain our core DNA as we went deeper into psych and hard rock influences. It was a complete immersion for me into art, film, music, poetry and literature, weaving those influences into what was to become Sonic Temple. The band was becoming more popular. We were in uncharted waters. Most of the bands we had come up with had split up or fallen off. We were accelerating. There was no real time to breathe. We were forming new allegiances and breaking the glass ceiling of 'the indie outsider.'" The album catapulted The Cult into superstar status and remains their most commercially successful release. It has sold over 1.5 million copies in the US alone, and was declared platinum in 1990. It made it to #10 on the Billboard charts, and the above mentioned songs are all rock-radio staples to this day. The Cult continues to record and tour and they have released six albums since Sonic Temple, the most recent being Hidden City in 2016. They've been spending 2019 celebrating this album by performing all over the world on a tour they've billed as A Sonic Temple, paying homage to the album.

text: Editorial Reviews Product description Essential hits anthology from goth/rock perennials including She Sells Sanctuary, Fire Woman, Love Removal Machine, and the non album single Resurrection Joe Amazon.com The hard-rocking Cult have come along way from the early Native American stylings of Dreamtime and the dodgy goth tendencies evident on their classic album, Love . Blame Rick Rubin, who helmed Electric and steered them down the rocky road to metal heaven. This best-of collection brings together tracks from the span of their career, and is a worthy testament to their rites of passage. "She Sells Sanctuary" sounds as refreshing as it did in 1985. There are some dubious inclusions from the twilight years of their career, such as "Star" and "Coming Down (Drug Tongue)," but when they have to hold their own alongside "Fire Woman" and "Lil' Devil" it's hardly surprising that they are found wanting. --Helen Marquis Editorial Reviews Product description Essential hits anthology from goth/rock perennials including She Sells Sanctuary, Fire Woman, Love Removal Machine, and the non album single Resurrection Joe Amazon.com The hard-rocking Cult have come along way from the early Native American stylings of Dreamtime and the dodgy goth tendencies evident on their classic album, Love .

text: Editorial Reviews The Cult: Ian Astbury (vocals, percussion); Bill Duffy (guitar); Jamie Stewart (bass); Les Warner (drums). Engineers: Bruce Buchalter, Andy Wallace. The Cult: Ian Astbury (vocals, tambourine); Bill Duffy (guitar); Jamie Stewart (bass); Les Warner (drums). Engineers: Bruce Buchalter, Andy Wallace. Recorded in New York, New York. Includes liner notes by Pat Gilbert. All tracks have been digitally remastered. Personnel: Ian Astbury (vocals, trombone, tambourine); Billy Duffy (guitar); Jamie Stewart (bass guitar); Les Warner (drums). Audio Mixer: Andy Wallace. Liner Note Author: Pat Gilbert. Recording information: Electric Lady Sound Studios. Photographers: Peter Anderson ; Rob Brimson; Tony Mottram. This pairing of the Cult's Rick Rubin-produced Electric with Peace, the Steve Brown-helmed sessions that featured earlier, completely finished versions of most of the same tracks, seems like it should have been released ages ago. Peace (aka "The Manor Sessions") was supposed to be the follow-up to 1985's hit Love (which Brown also produced). The band were unhappy with the sound of unfinished product and hired Rubin, who insisted they re-cut the entire album. The Cult re-recorded seven songs, wrote one more, and re-recorded "King Contrary Man," a leftover from the Love sessions, and the atrocious "Born to Be Wild" cover. Some of the Peace material -- four tracks previously surfaced as B-sides to Electric's singles -- and another five appeared as The Manor Sessions EP; the full album was issued in the six-disc Rare Cult box in 2000, but has been out of circulation since. When comparing these two offerings side by side, it becomes glaringly apparent that the Cult really needed guidance in the studio. They certainly had most of the songs, but they had no editor, and the sonics on Peace make it sound like merely an extension of the previous album, even as the songs the band were writing evolved. It's no wonder they were unhappy with the finished result.
