DJ Boxer - Track of the Week:



Gods Zoo is probably my favourite track by Ian Astbury as it was during the period when he started to ditch the Goth Rock associations of Southern Death Cult to progress towards a more rock sound via The Cult. Astbury joined former Theatre of Hate guitarist, Billy Duffy for the short lived Death Cult which only produced 2 singles (that were later combined into an EP).
The earlier works with Southern Death Cult are also excellent pieces of work and also deserve a mention. "Apache" and "Moya" to name a few tracks to come from the only full release (or rather, a compilation of recordings) by Southern Death Cult that was to become Death Cult and later, The Cult.
