Hi Clumsy - welcome back 
Glad to see you

I think I've commented on here before that I rate the Cult but can't see the appeal of AC/DC at all! I know the general consensus is that the Cult were the (inferior) British AC/DC, but that to me sounds like a weaker Cult song, something that I'd think was a weaker song on a Cult album as it sounds inferior to the Cult's best work. The vocals are weak, the lyrics are lame and musicianship is sub-Cult. That said, I quite like it but I really can't stand "Thunderstruck" though! I concede that I might have misjudged AC/DC a bit.
I am an AC/DC fan, I also like the Cult. In all of my years I have never heard a comparison of the Cult with AC/DC.
I really havent. I would never say they were inferior to them. To me The Cult were more (80's) punk rock as opposed to AC/DC being blues rock.
Each their own I suppose.
Oddly enough I saw t'Cult supporting G n' R!
I wouldn't put them in the same street as AC/DC either or Punk Rock. Quite a heavy band live and a bit more melodic.

I thought the Cult were Goths... albeit quite rockin'! We've opened quite a can of worms here

Only up to the Love album. After that, starting with Electric, they really signed themselves up to Heavy Metal. The synth into is just an example of the mid 80s pop video fad for boring leading scenes before the main song.
I wouldn't describe this as Goth in any way. Musically nor lyrically.

I wouldn't put them in Goth category either. But wiki does.
I loved them as a teen, but to be honest until 'She Sells Sanctuary' I hadn't really heard of them.
Although I am still laughing at comparing The Cult to AC/DC. NO comparison.

That reminds me of a C4 thread where you and various others (including me) jumped on the settee and started giving it some with the air guitar
One regards Billy Duffy as being Angus' equal but it's like comparing Doncaster Rovers to Peterborough and wondering who is best!

Me too if it includes a guitar version of this....
I only just saw this. We remain convinced that the Devil was robbed.
The Guardian had a very good review of the new line up!
I just came in to post about it. I haven't read the Guardians review, I'm just going off what I have seen/heard on YouTube. Bloody awful. AWFUL
I'm totally with you Cinds, While I realise Bon was the ultimate for some people, I can't get my head around the fact that someone is trying to live up to Brian
I've only just got round to reading yesterday's hard copy (busy Monday) t'Grauniad gives the concert five stars! Quite an unusual event in itself.
One notes that the pop group Radiohead also get five stars for their new gramophone record.

I agree, the Cult were infinitely superior to MTV corporate bores, AC/DC! Thunderstruck has to be the most retarded rubbish any Beavis and Butthead teen has ever banged their brainless heads to!
Tell me Cinds, is all AC/DC as cack as Thunderstruck? I'd like to think it isn't as I do like Heavy Metal when it doesn't stick to the corporate formula.

Billy Duffy is a ledge!
One now notes that the Internet is awash with tales of new technology which will enable the singer to resume his career.
YES YES YES! Sorry, just being devils advocate.
