The Cult

The Cult are a British rock band formed in 1983. They gained a dedicated following in Britain in the mid 1980s as a post-punk band with singles such as "She Sells Sanctuary", before breaking mainstream in the United States in the late 1980s as a hard rock band with singles such as "Love Removal Machine" and "Fire Woman". The band fuse a "heavy metal revivalist" sound with the "pseudo-mysticism ... of The Doors [and] the guitar-orchestrations of Led Zeppelin ... while adding touches of post-punk goth rock". Since their earliest form in Bradford during 1981, the band have had various line-ups; the longest-serving members are vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, the band's two songwriters. more »

 Struggling with Zap City? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

See his bones across the dust
On the road to Zap city
Devil's slow to recognize 
Whether we all live in Zap city
Young girls fly to the beaches
Take me now boys
Take me now preachers
Santify Sanctify
To the old heat, Zap city

Zap City, she's so pretty
Win all day, more than too many
Zap City, she's so pretty
The girl of your dreams

Live in sanction, sandy girls
Hot on Route 66 to Zap City
Another day in paradise
Metropolis moves like a hungry wolf
Hungry wolf
Dusky palm trees, are they real?
Line the roadside to zap city
Buildings red, life on the sky
Dancin' drug addicts real so far

Zap City, she's so pretty
Win all day, more than too many
Zap City, she's so pretty
The girl of your dreams

Gasoline, mescaline
I'm praying she-dog bites
Beauty queens wrapped up inside
Gettin' hot, stayin' up all night
Siren's cry breaks through the night
God, Oh he's gone to fly
Zap City, you know it's so pretty
She's so God damn pretty
