The Cult

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

1/ "most" what? He always sounds out of breath.

2/ He must be nearly 65, he'll be tripping over it when he goes for his pension.

1. ...but unlike most, he actually sings on key quite a bit of the time. And his voice is very distinct - I can always tell that it's him singing, you know what I mean?

b. Again: ...and?

I do believe I smell jealousy here, dear Biggles... ;)

I saw southern death cult, they were brilliant.
I saw death cult, they were brilliant.
I saw half of the Cult Dreamtime tour, brilliant.
I saw most of the Love tour, brilliant.
Then they wrote Electric and it all went downhill from there.
Covering Born to be wild pretty much summed up just how cliched they'd become.

So they made a few mistakes along the way.. It shows they try and they want to do new stuff, and above all they don’t see themselves as something better than the rest.

Unkle's new album has lots of guest artists on it, Including Ian Astbury. "When Things Explode" is a good song and he sings it well, although he sounds quite different ...almost sounding like Ian McCulloch.

track listing:


War Stories
1. Intro
2. Chemistry
3. Hold My Hand
4. Restless (feat. Josh Homme)
5. Keys To The Kingdom (feat. Gavin Clark)
6. Price You Pay
7. Burn My Shadow (feat. Ian Astbury)
8. May Day (feat. The Duke Spirit)
9. Persons & Machinery (feat. Autolux)
10. Twilight (feat. 3D)
11. Morning Rage
12. Lawless
13. Broken (feat. Gavin Clark)
14. When Things Explode (feat. Ian Astbury)
