I’m a bit late to these guys but that is no reason to give them the coverage they deserve and having had them on repeat for a good part of a blissful summer weekend, now seems to the time to catch up.

Cults have had their Bandcamp up now for a few months offering three absolute delights up for free download along with a limited 7″ release on Forest Family Records (the label from GvB and Weekly Tape Deck) But we still know relatively little about the band.

Pitchfork had a short interview with Brian Oblivion and Madeline Follin, the couple from San Diego but living in New York who are Cults, and the good news is that a full length is in the works and a tour sometime soon – but I’m guessing not to this side of the pond.

What’s so fucking great about these two? Well they have this fantastic ability to blend clean and bright 1950s pop, with some psychedelic sounds of the 1960s. It’s gazing nostalgia to let you sit back and see the liberation of half a century’s pop culture.

Cults – Go Outside
Cults – The Curse
Cults – Most Wanted

Keep and eye on their Bandcamp for updates as the 7″ is shamefully already sold out.
