What appeals to me about the track #LOVE & makes it my favourite Cult song ever is because it has a unique atmosphere. It's a lucky combination of all the elements and how they came together including I believe “more cowbell”. It all creates a beautiful tension ❤️

#thecult #LOVE album photo shoot with Andrew MacPherson. I was really happy with then and we were involved in picking photos from the contact sheets to be used. In fact I had too many good choices but in the end picked this one coz of the unusual “cross” shape it made.

#8424 With the 40th anniversary of the release of ‘Dreamtime’ this week it seemed only right to revisit the “Falcon Friday Special” I filmed during the #UTMS sessions at Rockfield Studios in 2020… and the legendary location where we recorded our first album! 🎥 @mickpeek

With the shows over for 2023 I just want to give a shout out to Charlie & JT who really helped bring the Death Cult music to life. The songs are quite different to later Cult material & they put in the hard work to learn them and adapt to the style. Thanks guys 🩵 📸 @mickpeek

Last of the Summer Winos… A long day on the bike yesterday but it was great fun… Snake Pass... Hayfield… Glossop… as I mostly rode around the Peak District. I ended up where Compo went for his tea in Holmfirth… sadly it was closed but next door was open so that had to do!!!

#OTD 1976… Sex Pistols & SATD at the Lesser Free Trade Hall… & yes, I really WAS THERE!!! It’s funny to think that being there as a 15 year old kid I would end up good friends (and play onstage) with many of the musicians from that night that changed my life.

The #SHESELLSSANCTUARY session was only done initially to do a “one off” single with producer Steve Brown. He had recently worked with Wham and knew how to make a “pop” single so with it charting we went on to do #LOVE with him.

One HUGE thing is that Sanctuary was recorded with Nigel Preston on drums and earlier than the rest of #LOVE in a separate session. Big Country's @MarkBrzezicki did the album session as Nige had been “let go” at that point. 🥁 #dontdodrugskids

#TBT Cult Brothers. Ian & I have been making music and playing live together since 1983 & this pic of Death Cult was taken at our ever first London show that year. Tonight, and it’s great to be still out there doing shows and have new music coming very soon… 📸 @mickpeek
