The Cult

On August 6, 1986, The Cult performed at the Provinssi Rock festival in Seinäjoki, Finland, during a pivotal moment in their career. This live recording occurred shortly after the release of their breakthrough album, "Love," which came out earlier that same year. "Love" showcased a more polished sound compared to their earlier work and featured hit singles like "Love Removal Machine," which was part of their set during the performance. The Cult, known for their fusion of post-punk and hard rock, was rapidly gaining popularity in the mid-1980s, securing a reputation for their energetic live shows. Additionally, the performance was later broadcast on Finnish television, further amplifying their reach and solidifying their status in the rock scene at that time. This period marked a significant transition for the band, setting the stage for their subsequent album, "Electric," released the following year.
