Today’s cassette is Love (1985) by The Cult.

One of the defining post-punk albums of the 80s—dark, spacious, and big enough to fill arenas. The breakout hit was “She Sells Sanctuary,” a song that practically defined alternative radio. But for me, the standout has always been “Brother Wolf / Sister Moon”—moody, hypnotic, and haunting.

This copy still plays without a hitch, and it’s perfect walking music. The kind of album that makes the city around you feel cinematic.

A hand holding a cassette tape of Love by The Cult. The cover is black with silver metallic text that reads “THE CULT” at the top and “LOVE” at the bottom. In the center is a stylized silver winged emblem with a circle, flanked by small red occult-like symbols. The case shows some scratches and wear.

@atomicpoet @recordpics I can’t tell you how much I, ahem, love this album. The entire thing is awesome and for me The Phoenix really hits.
