From BBC

After the breakup, frontman Ian Astbury joined forces with guitarist Billy Duffy to form Death Cult in 1983.

In 2023, Astbury and Duffy would revive Death Cult for a series of shows across the U.K. and a one-off performance at what was then the Theatre at Ace Hotel.

Needless to say, most attendees were fans of the Cult, the most well known of the three band iterations, and Astbury was seemingly frustrated that the crowd wasn’t more reactive to tunes from Death Cult and the Southern Death Cult.

On the contrary, Astbury’s vocals were great, and everyone seemed to be on the same wave, except the crowd.
