{"product_id":"the-cult-electric-peace-2lp","title":"The Cult: Electric Peace Vinyl 2LP","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Cult were one of the defining groups of late 80s Alternative rock.\u003c\/i\u003e When they recorded the follow up to their breakthrough album, \u003ci\u003eLove\u003c\/i\u003e, they were not too satisfied with the results. They re-recorded the album with \u003cstrong\u003eRick Rubin\u003c\/strong\u003e and left the previously recorded material on the shelf. \u003ci\u003eElectric Peace\u003c\/i\u003e sees both versions of the album reissued for the first time together. Here's what Beggars Banquet had to say: In 1985, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/search?type=article%2Cpage%2Cproduct\u0026amp;q=The+Cult\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Cult\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e enjoyed breakthrough success with the single \"She Sells Sanctuary\" and the album \u003ci\u003eLove\u003c\/i\u003e, establishing them as a new breed of Alternative rock band. When it came to recording a follow-up, the band booked into The Manor studios in Oxfordshire with Steve Brown again producing the album. By the end of October 1986 the album was recorded, the masters assembled and it was given the title \u003ci\u003ePeace\u003c\/i\u003e. However, the band was not happy with the final results, which seemed too polished. Appreciating the rawness of Run-D.M.C.'s \"Walk This Way,\" the band contacted producer Rick Rubin to re-mix the lead track, \"Love Removal Machine.\" Rubin agreed to work with the band but only on condition that the track was entirely re-recorded. The result was a sparse, dry, riffing version that captured the sonic excitement the band were looking for. Enthused by the results, the decision was made to abandon the expensive Peace recordings and re-record the entire album in New York with Rick Rubin. The new tracks would become The Cult's third album, re-titled \u003ci\u003eElectric\u003c\/i\u003e, and sold millions. Tracks from \u003ci\u003ePeace\u003c\/i\u003e were used as single B-sides and some of the alternative versions were issued on an early CD – \u003ci\u003eThe Manor Sessions\u003c\/i\u003e, but it wasn't until the limited \u003ci\u003eRare Cult\u003c\/i\u003e box set in 2000 that fans got to hear the full album correctly sequenced. The box rapidly sold out, so \u003ci\u003ePeace\u003c\/i\u003e has been unavailable for 13 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eincludes the original Electric album and the rare Peace album side by side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblack double vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ehoused in gatefold jacket w\/ printed inner sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Beggars Banquet 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ereviewed by Michu Meszaros 08\/2013\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eALSO AVAILABLE\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/the-cult-electric-indie-exclusive-colored-vinyl-vinyl-lp\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThe Cult: Electric - Indie Exclusive Colored Vinyl LP\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/the-cult-sonic-temple-30th-anniversary-vinyl-lp\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThe Cult: Sonic Temple - 30th Anniversary Vinyl LP\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/the-cult-love-indie-exclusive-colored-vinyl-vinyl-lp\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThe Cult: Love Vinyl LP \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/the-cult-ceremony-indie-exclusive-colored-vinyl-vinyl-2lp\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eThe Cult: Ceremony - Indie Exclusive Colored Vinyl 2LP\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Cult","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl 2LP *Loc13E","offer_id":347368713,"sku":"lp-5691","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/products\/cult-electricpeace.jpg?v=1762200993","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.sbs\/products\/the-cult-electric-peace-2lp","provider":"turntablelab.sbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
