The Cult - Electric

This is the one I think is best.


Anyone else?

Nope. This is the second best IMO.

Contains the classic triple play of the first three cuts though...

These guys suck. They are the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.

"Trying to get to heaven 'fore the sun goin' down"

- Ian Astbury



Fire and Gasoline, Harley Davidson's, UK/US culture Clash, Big Grooves, Primal Lizard King howling, Youngtastic metallic rockabilly riffs.

Heavy Metal's greatest recorded statement. 'Nuff said.

They definitely do on the new album. I love Sonic Temple, Electric and Love though.

Electric is wicked awesome. Rick Rubin was perfect for that album. I still can't get enough of the solo in "Wild Flower".

I just didn't like last years Born Into This, though I did like the song I Assassin. I did like 2001 Beyond Good And Evil te song rise isa great tune-TJ

I like Electric, but me fav is Sonic Temple. Great album though.

I like this one but I like Sonic Temple better.

Clearly not a Simpsons fan. Please disregard and move along. Nothing to see here.

Born Into This actually does suck. But Beyond Good And Evil is great!

Picked this one up at my local record store earlier today. Haven't played it yet.

Electric - is one of those albums - that I know - all the lyrics too.
I can still sing pretty good - love rocking out to it in my car for sure !

I love LOVE and Sonic Temple. The only reason I don't own Electric is because of the Steppenwolf cover which sucks. But the other songs are pretty good. I should pick it up some day.

I have always been a casual fan of The Cult. I enjoy their music from time to time.

I just want to know how you happened to dig up a 13 year old thread? And one that I posted on at that.

I just used the search device. Administrators here always give us a hard time for starting the same thread twice .

This album is addictive!

Well, now I did order the 2CD edition with both Electric and the bonus disc of "Peace" (which is the original version of the album in the LOVE style before the band decided to scrap the production and re-record everything in a more heavy style).

Great one for sure. Went through it a few times a few weeks ago.

I bought Sonic Temple a few months ago.
It was really fantastic - to revisit that release.
Every song. Brought back so many memories.
I even had the concert tee shirt.
This tough dude loved it so much…I switched shirts with him.
At the bar he cut the sleeves off…ad that was that !
“ American Horse “. So good.

Solid album. I like this one a lot. As a few mentioned, the 1st 3! I agree.

Les Warner, the drummer on this album lives here in Vegas but I have not met him (that I know of).

The early Cult stuff is great!

Electric is the cd that broke them in USA..  Sonic Temple is the greatest cd from them, That will always be there greatest moment..  IMHO

Beyond Good And Evil is a great comeback cd.. My 2nd favorite cd by them..  I was hoping it would bring them back to the top..

American Horse is such an epic track!

Have a nice night \m/

Going on 6 hour road trip tomorrow. Putting this cd in.. A Classic!!
