      @ronniedoorzon1576Because they never quite achieved the success they deserved. There are many reasons for this but because of that they are classed as underrated. Yes they sold a lot of records but never quite as many as they probably should have. And I say this as a fan of the Cult since their debut with Dreamtime.

Seen The Cult a few times and they never disappoint, even the rare time Ian had an off day Billy can carry them.

    The MOST underrated album of the 80s is The Cult's Love, which this song was on. Every song on it is fricking phenomenal. They were not shy about bringing back the 60s psychedelic sound. That's why the Doors tapped him to be their front man for a reunion tour.

To me, it the evokes a feeling of driving to the beach, hangong out on the boardwalk, and realizing by the campfire on the beach that you're falling in love with the person you're with. There's something comfortably dark and summery about it.

    When I was a senior in Highschool in 89 I went to see the Metallica "And Justice For All" Tour with the opening band that none of us had heard "the Cult" Apparently, they were a British Act that had been around for 6 years already. She Sells Sanctuary was from 1985 when the band had far more of the 1980s sort of New Wave kind of look.
    In any case, at big concerts it's common to assume the opening band will suck and people commonly hang out in the parking lot partying and socializing with other fans totally missing the first act.
    We had 5th row seats for this cobcert and wanted to secure the seats early because in those days Metallica shows were still big but not commercial to the extent they are today. That means they were far rowdier and attracted lots of bikers, working men in construction, manual labor jobs like steel workers, boiler makers, industrial mechanics as well as rowdy young metal heads. The concert was at Alpine Valley in Wisconsin and sure enough there were lots of rough looking dudes, skanky chicks, and a good percentage of all around degenerates in attendance (I am sure people would have thought the same of us but because were seniors in highschool at the end of our road for scholarships for athletics- our 7 man crew consisted of football players, wrestlers, hockey players, track athletes (we all loved to party but had signed athletic codes and 2 of the guys had recently been recruited by universities in the NCAA for football, and 2 of us were hoping to secure wrestling scholarships, one guy was working on a division 1 hockey scholarship. Being young punks we saw ourselves as legitimate and considered the other hard rock fans to be burnouts not considering we were all in the same place doing the same things. In any case, we wanted to avoid getting in trouble because we were in violation of the Athletic Code during football season. If we blew off the opening band there would certainly be guys in our row of seats. The last thing we needed was a fight, which would involve getting thrown out and possibly arrested considering our underage status, fake IDs so we could get wristbands and buy liquor at the refreshment stands etc. We made sure to arrive early and catch what we figured would be some shitty warm up band. We were mistaken. At the time the cult were not well know in the states but their image had changed with everyone sporting long hair, leather, jeans and looking more like a traditional hard rock band. They played the songs from their not yet released album Sonic Temple but they played She sells sanctuary and many of the new tunes like fire woman that sounds very similar to She sells Sanctuary. We had a blast hearing them. The problem was grunge was just 2 years away and all the pregrunge bands other than a Handful got swallowed including the cult. Underrated band

      I absolutely love this story. My husband graduated in ‘91 and was a NY All State Football Player. He had offers from countless schools, but he chose the most coveted, Penn State, to play Division 1 Football. He was the Captain of the football team (obviously), but not your typical jock. He was at heavy metal concerts that were not the typical chose of music taste for the captain of the football team of Homecoming King nominees. He didn’t look for fights, but certainly didn’t back down from one - especially if it meant defending someone he cared about. Everyone knew that about him. Don’t *uck with his friends or family. So long story not so short. He had officially committed to Penn State and he knew one thing…DO NOT GET IN TROUBLE. This was his ticket out of a horrible family life and out of Long Island. In any event, someone messed with one of his family members and he didn’t just get in a fight. He put this kid in the iCU. They weren’t even sure if he was going to make it. He gets arrested and Penn State revoked his scholarship. This is one of the songs he called “songs to my wife”. He passed away unexpectedly at the age of 45 still in as good of shape as he was at the age of 18. I used to joke with him when I would hear his alarm go off every morning at 4:30 am to head to the gym before work “why do you still do this? You know there’s no big game for you tomorrow. Those days are long gone” . He would say “it’s all I have going for he, if I lose this I’ll lose you.” That couldn’t have been farther from the truth, but he was determined to never lose his “sanctuary”. Thanks again for sharing your story, brought me to tears and evoked so many emotions for me.
