This is a rocking classic from start to finish. Rick Rubin fixed it up real good from how it started out.
The Cult - Electric
Now everyone knows my bias to The Cult but Rick converted this album to a hard rock AC/DC sound. Electric is right at the top of my personal faves but I can recognized what Rick was trying to emulate here. Sometimes the best rock just needs to be stripped down to definitive sounds and simple power chord riffs.

I can appreciate both incarnations of the Electric album, pre and post Rubin. Love era Cult was such a different, but still great, band. Electric was almost like a 180 for them. Astbury still makes a beautiful goth or rock frontman.

I can’t argue that but Toys in the Attic is very close second

I've always got more of a Zeppelin vibe from that album than AC/DC. To me it sounded like a mad scientist trying to create an album that sounded like what Led Zeppelin would have sounded like had they came around in the 80s and Jim Morrison had been the lead singer instead of Robert Plant. BTW none of this is meant as an insult or a dis. I love that album. It's just always sounded a bit more bombastic than an AC/DC album.

Blue, purple, or green? The white and yellow are nasty.
