The Cult will be celebrating the 40th anniversary of their Death Cult early incarnation of the group — and their post-punk origins — with a special Los Angeles show and UK tour. The shows, titled Death Cult 8323, will be centered around Death Cult and their eponymous EPs, but will also “boast a setlist that spans the three phases of the band, from Southern Death Cult, to Death Cult, and The Cult’s first two albums: Dreamtime (1984) and Love (1985).”
The L.A. show happens at The Theatre at Ace Hotel on October 23 with Cold Cave opening. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday, August 18 at 10 AM Pacific.
Meanwhile, The Cult and Cold Cave have other West Coast shows in October, and those are listed below as well.
Death Cult’s single “God’s Zoo” made our list of 13 Classic ’80s Goth Songs. Watch them play that on UK show The Tube, and listen to other Death Cult songs, below.
