Cults, 'Go Outside' (Interface)

Share
Comments
Cults are one of those bands whose meteoric ascent to indie fame was based on mystery and the hype of just a few songs. When couple Brian Oblivion and Madeline Follin met at a dimly lit rock show in San Diego, they didn't know that their relationship would yield such dark shades of the occult through an infectious pop aesthetic. After a short time together, the pair formed Cults -- a band of shadowy and cinematic chord changes and unforgettable hooks.

The now New York City-based band stopped by Spinner's The Interface just after their eponymous debut was released. The result is an intimate live look at Cults' hazy and reverb-laden songs. We sat down with the band's founding members to talk about their love of movies, growing up in a music-filled home and the most terrifying bus ride of their lives.

"It's about people that try to take your life and turn it into something else, because they're mean, or lazy, or try to get in your way and make you feel like you can't be creative, or do what you want to do. And then in the end it's about walking away from that and going to do your own thing." -- Guitarist Brian Oblivion
