From a BBC Radio 1 session for David Jensen, broadcast 27 Oct 1983. Three months before we became The Cult. Ripped from a cassette recording from radio, so quality is bit rough.

Black Asteroid- Dirge Out feat. Ian Astbury

The Cult - Resurrection Joe (Radio 1 session, 12th Jul 1984)

01 – No Place to Hide

A song about deception and masks people wear.
It speaks of someone who builds prestige and fortune on lies, manipulating others for their own gain — but in the end, there’s nowhere left to hide.

02 – Crashing Down In My Head

A reflection on love turning fragile.
When two people stop listening to each other, problems grow into storms. Misunderstandings break the bond until everything crashes down in your head.

03 – Eternal Oblivion

Inspired by the philosophical concept of eternal oblivion.
It questions existence itself, suggesting that the true peace may not lie in life or afterlife — but in the silence of nothingness.

A song about greed and destruction.
How men in power, blinded by ego, sacrifice their own nations and poison the world — all in the name of control.
