They took America by storm,but didn`t do really well in Britain,but they started here as a bit of a dreary gothic rock band.When they released the Electric album,which was a "kickass"(sorry,an American quote)album and went over there,they went on to much bigger succesess.
@CorruptedCurse I was Lesley's boyfriend when She Sells Sanctuary came out....Brian came to stay at out apartment with his girlfriend Lorna i believe her name was? :)
Nope....I'm Doug. I dated Lesley when she was 14...then we split up...then she met Gary.....they dated for a couple years...then we re-met in colledge and started dating again. We then moved in together etc etc......I think she went out with Mark after me...then maybe back to Gary? Who knows? Haven't seen her since about 1989........:)
Wow! As in Lesley's brother Brians old girlfriend....or maybe they are still together or married? Is Brian your da?? Anyways....nice to chat with ya mate! i liked Lorna. Brian and Lorna came and stayed with Lesley and i for a week over New Years the one year. Man....can he drink! Lmao!
@whaddefuxx Well that's great to hear! I loved your dad and mom. They were great fun people for the short time they stayed in Lesley and my's apartment. What is your parents up to now??
i was so happy to found it again!!! i do love the cult and ian astbury!! u missread me i meant someone posted this before and he (the guy who posted it) delete it so i couldnt see it anymore 'til i found this
Great, thanks very much for this. Do you happen to have any more of the show that you could upload? Haven't seen this for years since my video copy fell apart.

Ian Astbury was the one who first used the term ''Goth'' when referring to his music. Legend.
Dungarth 3 years ago
no, he used it when refering to the fans of Sex Gang Children
MountGoth 3 years ago
No, he clearly stated at various stages in the early 80s on Tv shows in the U.K that his music was ''Goth oriented''
Dungarth 3 years ago
hmm, pretty much no band (except maybe Sex Gang Children) actually used the goth term in there music, so that is pretty cool
