I got my middle name from this song! My parents were so cool back in the 80s. They listened to The Cult, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Bauhaus, Love and Rockets, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, etc... It makes sense that I am a Goth myself, my parents were goths as well. I love Gothic rock!!!
Huh? I listened to every one of those bands and I'm not or ever have been even close to being Goth. The Cult is my second favorite band of all time though (Tool is #1).
Totally same! When I was a wee baby bat, y folks gave me Cure, Siouxsie, Bauhaus, Sisters, and Killing Joke records! Yay for parents who get and support us!
It actually does not make any sense. You are supposed to rebel from your parents interests. You should be a smelly hippy or insufferable poser gnagsta twit. Glad you broke the cycle.
Saw them at Leeds Uni (or Poly- cant remember now) supporting Bauhaus in 1982. Both bands were excellent- got talking to Ian Astbury after the gig and he got me back stage where I stood around looking awkward with the guys from SDC and Bauhaus for an hour. Will never forget it....
My brother was (still is) the bassist for the Not Sensibles (I'm in Love with Margaret Thatcher and The Bishop) who were backing the Southern Death Cult way back in the early 80's. My brother brought home one of the mixing desk recordings of one of the concerts they attended with early songs by Ian and his gang when they were still called The Southern Death Cult. Brilliant music. took my girlfriends to see the later Cult when Ian had the most amazing hair in the mid to late 80's. Agree with Fire woman, his voice was amazing.
Funny thing about Ian’s hair. I always thought I was the only one who liked it back then. I remember the ‘80 and ‘90s fondly. Got everything and anything by The Cult up until Beyond Good and Evil when the band was already in decline and running on fumes.
Cool :) Ian Astbury/The Cult isn’t really goth - it’s based on a Native American culture in the South East US. Check out the Ceremony album by The Cult. Anyway I’m not meaning to be pedantic and it’s good you enjoy this.
@@gypsylee73 SDC, Death Cult, and The Cult’s “Dreamtime” and “Love” albums are all goth classics. Anything after that, I agree is not goth. However there are small elements of post-punk/goth in some of their later work.
Nostalgic memories from a legendary band. I just had graduated high school when Sonic Temple album was released. Went straight to Wally World and made 2 great purchase, THE CULT & BANG TANGO .🔥🔥🔥♥️♥️♥️✌
The classic (famous) version is the official release from their ep, with the Indian on the cover. This was a demo version that was released after the band broke up.
Saw them support Bauhaus at Leeds Uni refectory at the back end of 1982 and was on the bus to Leeds a few days later to hunt down the LP-size single at either HMV or Virgin. Them wo't days!
the Cult is NOT this band re named.the lead singer formed an ENTIRELY different band just taking the word 'cult' along w him.the only other similarity being both bands kick ass
My buddy worked with Ian at a restaurant back in the day when he lived here in Hamilton Ontario Canada. Always liked him, but most people didn't get him in the 70s.
I already have the album, though I don't seem to have this version of the song Moya. (There are two versions of it upon the album though, so perhaps I do.) Best song this band, under whatever guise, ever did. Second best song is Sanctuary.
@@cowboymouth6429 *You're. Seriously dude, if you're gonna be racist, at least make sure you grammar check. Not doing so automatically makes your racism ineffective.
I have this Album for about six years now and have played it to Death. By the By I believe Southern Death Cult was an Native American Tribe in the Southwest United States.
I remember when this music was still considered punk, 'positive punk' they used to call it but at the same time the emerging OI bands were also given the same title by a rival music paper so supporters of both styles dropped the name and we ended up with Goth and OI, (the awful 'post punk' hadn't been invented yet) they should of just stuck with punk. From research for a mag/fanzine).
IMO, this video could be improved by removing the title page. I know what it is: I searched for it, I clicked the correct link, I can read. I'd rather have been taken straight into this supremely atmospheric music.
Two spooky fellas once tried to convince me to join their band by playing this song. In truth they sounded surprisingly like the record because that too is utter shite. That said, a tab of acid and this on the iPod would probably be the ideal way to get into the mood for a bin bag suicide party 'eh?
I heard this song when I was14 and have been a fan ever since ❤ I'm now 57😊❤

Great bands all but the best show ever was the Cult live. Great time to grow up.
I know it's been ten years but fantastic to hear that!

Ian Astbury has the voice of an angel.
He's done some great great stuff with UNKLE,his voice has really stood up to the passage of time .
I agree :) I can't wait till their new album comes out!
Darien Lee
Yes always some intresting ideas with people you might not expect,experimental without being arty-farty .
+Darien Lee Yeah!
Yeah well i'm a hetero guy and i've always listed Astbury's unpretentious voice up there with Mick Jagger and Shaun Ryder.

I remember the Not sensibles, blimey that's a name I haven't heard for a while, Cheers 😁

Being goth is the key to a full life. I enjoy goth culture.

@@gypsylee73 This was definitely a post-punk/goth band.
I’m just now giving it a chance so far I’m enjoying it

2021 - this track is played on Planet Rock Radio . Bloody Great 👍
Great memories. Late seventies and eighties were such good times for music.
I hadn't been here since i was like 14 years old, i still remember the whole song 🖤
I will always be that 14 Year old Death Rocker kid.. now Ancient haha
now this brings back some amazing memories. how i miss the late 80's early 90's goth scene....
I don't class the cult as goth
JOSEPH Mysko Not anymore, but at one time the Cult were considered a goth supergroup, alongside their peers the Mission and the Sisters of Mercy.
This was early 80s
Gothic rock at it's finest.
Post punk
Ian Astbury is a legend! Billy too! Love all their stuff.
Loved this album, takes me back to a time when music was good, hard and honest.
That is and was a hymn!💎
M,55,still listening to CROWDS by BAUHAUS.

It’s also the version you’ll find on the Mick Mercer Gothic Rock compilation

i was at that gig .good tour
Roger Lord ahh just getting Sisterhood in that market was a Mission...lol
Roger Lord we saw them Many times but the gay stuff. Was not on! Astbury your love! The man from Horbury bridge asking for your love?
I have this album. I love this album.

Fetish of Death he also took a few songs and reworked them into Spiritwalker and A Flower In The Desert when he was in the Cult, to name a couple.
My buddy worked with Ian at a restaurant back in the day when he lived here in Hamilton Ontario Canada. Always liked him, but most people didn't get him in the 70s.
Excellent.
Haven't heard this for years
Vou me gabar aqui! Hoje encontrei num sebo esse vinil, raríssimo e comprei. Tá louco, lindo demais
His voice is awesome
I love the opening line to this tune
melhor época....saudade desse tempo.

Grandioso!!! Aquí comenzaba la historia de The Cult!!!
Ariel pink recorded a cover version of this song. He has a lot of gothic and post-punk influences so fans of this would possibly be into his music
I love this song,my fave.
This song makes me love the darkness. I’m a nyctophiliac. I love the darkness.
The lyrics are amazing. Good band, reminds me a lot of Bauhaus.
Do you like the cult ??
@@midnightwitch606 Some of their material I like yeah.
those lyrics earned my heart

this song is so religious it puts me in a trance
Essa fase gótica deles é tão boa quanto a fase comercial
I was brought here by Cate Wurtz, goth champion
🌺💜WOW!!! AMAZING!!
🌺🏵 AWWSOME SONG!
🌿🍁🌿
🌻🌿LUV FOREVER 🌿🌺💜
The cult forever. I bought this cassette in 1988. Apache, Moya, Fatman, etc.
favorite song on this album
@@cowboymouth6429 *You're. Seriously dude, if you're gonna be racist, at least make sure you grammar check. Not doing so automatically makes your racism ineffective.
It's interesting how both SDC and The Cult have gravitated towards Native American imagery...
Not a mystery though since Ian Astbury was the only common link between the different bands.
not true
magnifica ¡¡
Southern Death Cult isn't the same as Death Cult and The Cult. Death Cult and The Cult are supergroups and Southern Death Cult was a band.
Death Cult & SDC are essentially the same band. The Cults 1st LP Dreamtime is amazing - after that they decided to be ZZ Top and were dross. 🖤
Masterpiece
🍃💜🍃FOREVER!🍃💜🍃
Ontario Canada XOXO
This is by far the best version of a great song! Wonder if it's available on itunes (already have the album).
ya lo comprehace muchisimos años est

Great music..
⛓️💥⛓️💥🖤🖤⛓️💥⛓️💥
2:00
That's my favorite part
I love it all but specifically that part
awesome track
Good song!
Just beautiful :)
Even though this was the goth era the Cult were always set aside and better than all that goth stuff they made real sense
It wasn't the goth era of The Cult. It wasn't any era of The Cult.
So perfect! 💀💀
My favorite Goth band Bahaus is great but SDC for the short life span they had made some great music
What version is this? Because I can't find it on any of their officially released albums.
They went from southern death cult to death cult to the cult.
No, they didn't.
I remember when this music was still considered punk, 'positive punk' they used to call it but at the same time the emerging OI bands were also given the same title by a rival music paper so supporters of both styles dropped the name and we ended up with Goth and OI, (the awful 'post punk' hadn't been invented yet) they should of just stuck with punk.

Yes, Astbury is the crown prince of Metal. The Cult is energy + art. I truly love them.
Hahaha. King of metal? That title belongs to ozzy, halford, Anselmo! ... the real kings of metal! 🚫
@deSadetheImpaler - I THINK Billy Duffy was also in the SDC...
Nope.
Can hear were Broadcast was influenced for "America's Boy"
I already have the album. :)
Lyrics anyone?
I like this version, where can I find it?
mhm
Flower of death...The Hiroshima rose.
I can't stand the cult. But Southern Death Cult is one of my favorite bands of all time. Despite having few songs, their potency is astounding.
Sounds like The XX but with a different singer !
after southern death cult came death cult.
Nah, they didn't.
Fucking right baby
the cult
Dec 19 the anniversary of wounded knee.
Christmas skiing trip?
29th actually

Club scream
nope, ian met billy in death cult, and went on to form the cult
hic!!!!
this is like the band that goes nowhere
@dvargashell Hell... who cares, right : ) This is one of those times when the minority is in the right.
not better, just different
Practice what you preach , Ian. Ripping off the IP rights of First Nation children. Gross, bro. Love your voice. But that's gross bro.
