IAN ASTBURY: THE CULT

Passing through Arizona this week reminded us of The Cult. Never really a mainstream band in the U.S., we started loving The Cult back in Great Britain where they started with their post-punk hits like 'She sells Sanctuary', 'Fire Woman', 'Rain' and many others. They've opened doors to a completely different style of Rock & Roll including their personal look which is infused with a Native American vibe and which is still really current and a big part of our own personal style. In one sentence, Ian Astbury is a bad child of R&R and one of personal icons.

'Livin' in a shack in a one horse town
Tryin' to get to heaven before the sun
goin' down
Lizard in a bottle, yea

Dizzy in a haze for forty days
Hey there, little devil'
                   The Cult

'Yesterday, there were so many things
I was never told
Now that I'm startin to learn
I feel I'm growing old
'Cause yesterdays got nothing for me
Old pictures that I'll always see
Time just fades the pages
In my book of memories.'
               Guns N Roses
