Death Cult (EP)
The Death Cult compact disc is a compilation released in 1988, which collects the only single and only EP by the post-punk band that later became The Cult. These two recordings were issued separately in 1983 under the band's original name, "Death Cult". "Ghost Dance" is inspired by the writings and teachings of Wovoka, and the lyrics to "Horse Nation" are taken almost verbatim from the book Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.

Famous quotes containing the words death and/or cult:
“if thou slip thy troth and do not come at all.
As minutes in the clock do strike so call for death I shall:
To please both thy false heart, and rid myself from woe,
That rather had to die in troth than live forsaken so.”
—Unknown. The Lady Prayeth the Return of Her Lover Abiding on the Seas (l. 19–22)
“The cult of art gives pride; one never has too much of it.”
—Gustave Flaubert (1821–1880)
