Description

Originally released in 1989, Sonic Temple proved to be a pivotal moment for both The Cult and the wider rock scene. Produced by the legendary Bob Rock (Metallica, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith), the record had four hit singles; Fire Woman, Edie (Ciao Baby), Sun King and Sweet Soul Sister.

The album catapulted The Cult into superstar status and remains their most commercially successful release. It has sold over 1.5 million copies in the U.S. alone and was declared platinum in 1990. It made it to #10 on the Billboard charts and the abovementioned songs are all rock-radio staples to this day.

Released to mark the record’s 30th anniversary, this new box set contains three pieces of vinyl and a cassette plus tour memorabilia and ephemera (replica of original laminate, backstage pass, original press releases and label copy and more). It’s numbered and limited to 3000 pieces worldwide and contains 46 tracks, which include four previously unreleased. LPs one and two contain the album as originally released. LP three contains Live at Wembley recorded by the BBC and the cassette contains limited-release demos. Four of the live tracks are previously unreleased.
