The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary | Live Performance at Olympic Studios

Venue: Olympic studios Location: Barnes, United Kingdom

In the early stages of their career, The Cult gained significant traction with their single "She Sells Sanctuary," which was recorded at Olympic Studios in Barnes, UK. This track was part of the band's transition from their debut album, "Dreamtime," to their more commercially successful sound that would be solidified in their next album, "Love." The recording captured the band's unique fusion of post-punk and hard rock, showcasing their evolution in style. An interesting fact about this period is that "She Sells Sanctuary" became one of their most iconic songs, and its popularity helped to establish The Cult as a formidable presence in the rock scene during the mid-1980s. The song's anthemic quality and distinctive guitar riffs contributed to its lasting legacy, making it a staple in their live performances.
