 Love is the second release by the post punk British band The Cult from 1985 on Vertigo Records VOG 1-3365.  Although I like this album, I can't say the Cult is one of my favourite band; maybe it is the sound of the 80's that I'm not as fond of, cause this definitely sound like the 80's to me!  All that being said there are some really good songs on this album: other that the huge hit "She Sells Sanctuary", my pick is Brother Wolf, Sister Moon



Wildflower, from 1987, is a double EP by The Cult.  The first album consists of an extended rock mix & a dub mix of Wildflower, as well as Love Trooper, then the second album is a live recording of She Sells Sanctuary and Horse Nation on one side then an interview with Ian Astbury & Billy Duff on the second side.  I would say this is for hard core fans of The Cult. Get the previous record if you want some of their music in your collection before you look for this. Here is the Dub Mix of Wildflower:
