Holy Smoke Yeah, in the rock music circles they are both respected, but don’t think they sell a lot of records...but does anybody anymore? The Cult used to sell a lot records from late 80’s to early 90’s, though...so they’ve made their money...not so sure about King’s X, and that kinda bothers me...✌️

Underbought not underrated. The British used to like other things when SDC/DC/Cult were in their prime time. Italo disco, Stock Aitken Waterman, HiNRG, Pop etc.
I saw The Cult live in memphis summer of 2022. They rocked the house. Ians vocals were spot on. 30 yrs had zero effect. Timeless rocker!! It seemed like I walked right into 1989. Music is the closest thing to a time machine we have. Rock on dudes!!
I love Billy Duffy, he's such a typical Mancunian, down to Earth and funny.
Hearing Ian sing Wildflower with Duffy playing an acoustic guitar is a real treat. Ian's voice is like Corvette, lots of horsepower, and he has to throttle it down to give listeners depth, dimension and emotion to the song. I can see that the song has real meaning to him. Duffy's guitar playing is exquisite. They make a great team creating their legacy in music forever. What a blessing to be exposed to their music. Viva The Cult!!
Billy Duffy talks more here than in 33 years of interviews I've seen, combined, and he is wearing one of those rare "smile" things!

Jonesys guest are always of a very high calibre and they always seem relaxed talking to him. Billy and Ian are obviously friends, but it is the same with most of his guests. he has stayed down to earth and is completely unpretentious which is very rare for such an influential guy. he is pure class

I had the very good fortune to support Billy’s side band Circus Diablo on a little tour a good few years ago. Billy is one of my earliest guitar heroes and I couldn’t have been more delighted with what an incredibly good guy he is. Being Northern ( British), I was also delighted to hear how much of his accent he’s kept. Absolute legend of a man and Sonic Temple is, to me, still the definitive rock guitar sound

Ive seen the Cult 16 times since 87...saw them last Friday May 10th in Atlanta on the Sonic Temple 30th anniversary tour...they are still as amazing as ever. Tempesta is easily the best drummer they have ever had...really glad they have kept him in the line up for so long. Absolutely brilliant band

I remember Ian when he first played in Bradford with SDC. He had a thick Scouse accent.
Electric - still remains one of my top 10 CDs in my car.
How time flies. it feels just like yesterday that I was opening the electric album and looking at all The photos and that logo and wanted a Gretch white falcon but couldn’t afford it so I ended up with a white Ibanez Sheraton II which I still have today.
Billy being the talker and Ian being the quiet one, was not what I had expected.
Wow, what a hair raising version of Edie. One of the great British hard rock bands that has universal appeal. Absolutely unique
Love The Cult. Always see them when they come around and buy their cds. Ian still sings great and they were obviously in good spirits here. Glad Ian and Billy are happier now and drink and drugs haven't leveled a lethal wedge between them.

I saw The Cult 3 times back in the day. Every show was absolutely great! I think Ian is one of the most iconic frontmen of all time. He's right up there in the league of Plant and Tyler.
NOT how I thought Duffy was at all! Love him! Very charismatic and personable.

I use to always say Astbury had the greatest rock and roll voice of the 80’s. Granted it’s subjective, and looking back he’s in my top five of the era.
when Billy first started playing the riff in the background i was like "why is he playing hurt?" i guess Ian thought so too. LOL
Wow, these guys were/are so cool. I can't begin to explain how much they influenced me. It took me decades to get over (read; return to normal, after) their (discovering their) albums "The Cult", "Electric", and "Sonic Temple".

I saw The Cult in London Ontario a few years ago. I think Ian Astbury spent some time in Hamilton Ontario growing up. Great band....great sound. Lots of energy. Lots of great songs. Definitely check them out if you haven't seen them. I wish I could have seen Ian with The Doors. I wish they would play a Doors song with the Cult.....that would be amazing. What a great voice he has..very distinctive.

When I was going to school in Hamilton, I stayed with a family where the son knew Ian. Ian autographed a Cult video for him with the inscription "to Roy - Stay free. Wolf Child." Roy said the biggest drag for Ian was they were expected to play love removal machine and sanctuary every time.
Oh yeah, Ian's voice is sublime. One of the best, most unique and inimitable voices in rock.
Saw them at the Hollywood Palladium back in 95. Fugging awesome show. 🤘
Great band. Love/Electric/Sonic Temple was one of the great peaks for any rock band, I reckon. And ol' Ian guested on Fire and Gasoline by Jonesy with Axl Rose, on "I did U no wrong" redo).
