Hi all,
If you look these guys up you’ll likely find the word “underrated” along with the comments and I have to agree with that.
This is just a straight up rock song with a cool lick and solo and it was a hella lot of fun to play.
Haven’t been active on the forum of late as I’ve only been managing the odd half hour here and there and I learned this song over a good few weeks through headphones while the rest of the house was asleep.
Anyway hope you enjoy it and thanks for listening.
Liam.

Great choice, Liam, I love the Cult. Nothing got my toddler son dancing as much as this cut and Wildflower.
Your guitar tones sounded awesome and great job on the solo.
Was that a Karaoke.com backing track?

Thanks John.
Yeah they have some kick ass songs for sure. I’ll have to check out Wildflower that came up a lot in searches.
Yes Karaoke.com backing track the Moises app refused it for some reason.

Yeah, this really rocks big time Liam! And I agree with comments above, the tones you’re getting out of your guitars is wild! Are you recording using DAW Amps or are you recording by micing your amp? (I know you said you practised with headphones, but the actual recording?). Great performance all round 👍👏🌟👏👍 All the best! 😎🎸😎

Thanks Garry,
Yes it’s through Scarlet Focusrite and Ableton live.
I’m using a captor load box which is kinda the poor man’s Kempler but I think it has enough on there for most of us bedroom guys and it also eliminates the need for micing up your amps.
Although I didn’t record this through headphones, you absolutely can with the Captor so it’s defo something to look into. I think you can get them for a couple hundred dollars….

Honestly I’m not familiar with this band, but as you said this is pure straight rock and you played a brilliant version with a fantastic sound from your guitars, Liam! I didn’t know this captor load box, but for sure, together with your playing skills and the quality of your guitars, it did a great job.

Thanks Guido.
Yeah the Cult are not as well known as they should be so I’m not surprised that you haven’t heard of them.
The Captor is definitely something to look into for the home recording musician…

Rock It Liam! You are so right about The Cult being under-rated. I’ve never heard a song by them that I didn’t like. Fire Woman is my jam…Fu**in love that song. Ian Astbury has one of my favorite Rock Voices ever, and the guitarist always played short, perfect solos. The Cult had there own unique sound and they didn’t go in for flash or over-production, they just Rocked A$$.
Great job on your cover…I love your taste in music Bro,
Keep On Rockin’,

Thanks Ralph.
Couldn’t have put it better myself!
I love fire woman and I might have a look at that for further cover but I think there are a few tricky licks in there that I may not be able for.
Rock on indeed!
