The Cult

The decade had plenty of movers and shakers outside the glammed-up Sunset Strip scene.

You may have had to turn left of center of the dial to hear these songs in 1985, but they've left their mark on the decade.

Well that's rad. These 31 rock and metal albums have hit the four decade mark. How many of these 1985 records have you listened to?

They were starting in their various forms in 1984. Some had Rock Hall careers, others were hot for a moment.

As their fourth album arrived, the brass ring of global stardom seemed at last within their reach.

The Cult will launch a three-month tour in July focusing on their breakthrough 1987 album 'Electric.' They will play the record in its entirety during the run. This is the first time the band has performed the classic record from start to finish.
