Learned to play that album when I was in HS. Did you Billy Duffy was Jimmy Page's illegitimate child?

That, and Sun King (off of Sonic Temple) may be my favorite Cult Songs.

Electric was probably the best album though.

Saw them in '87 at the Saenger in NO with GNR opening up.

Kept yelling "get these douches off the stage so The Cult can come on"

Little did I know...........

I think Love was more ground breaking.

I do think Wildflower is one of their absolute best songs, however.

I went to see them open for Metallica and left as soon as Meattlica took the stage. Awesome Show. Sonic Temple is my fave album though. Electric is my second.

Love Removal Machine

Lots of folks thought they were the new Aerosmith back in the day.

Sun King

one of my favorites...ray gillen did some of the backing vocals...i think he was one of the best vocalists ever that too few people are familiar with.

Yes, it was. Electric brought the swagger, though.

One of my favorite albums of all time, although when it came out, it was such a departure from "Love" that I didn't know what to think about it.

During voting for Senior Class Song, I voted for Love Removal Machine... It didn't win
