Stadium
29 June, 2009
This was the big one produced by Bob Rock .
Big stadium rock time for The Cult.
Fire woman is an absolute classic rocker and Edie (ciao baby) is just one of their best ever.
Different again from the album before, but this is why The Cult are one of the best Britsh bands of all time. Shotgun!

The Cult: Ian Astbury (vocals, percussion); Billy Duffy (guitar); Jamie Stewart (keyboards, bass).
Additional personnel: John Webster (keyboards); Mickey Curry (drums); Iggy Pop (background vocals).
Recorded at Little Mountain Sound Studios, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada from September to November 1988.
The Cult began life as a British post-punk/goth outfit in the early '80s called the Southern Death Cult. In due course, Ian Astbury trimmed down not only the band's name but its sound, embracing '70s-style riff-driven hard rock with the help of former Theatre of Hate guitarist Billy Duffy. In the late '80s, Duffy played Page to Astbury's Plant as the band rose to arena rock stardom and tracks which melodically combined powerful rock with goth underpinnings, such as "She Sells Sanctuary," became rock radio staples.
