  By Michel Dussack On Thursday night, local indie pop duo Cults played a headlining show to a packed to capacity crowd in the grand ballroom of Webster Hall.

  Good Morning!! How would you like to have to look at that poster until November? Well, quite a few of the pundits are now saying that it could happen.

  You Aint No Picasso — Authority: 419
  Cults were joined by rapper Freddie Gibbs last night to perform a live remix of “Bad Things” at Webster Hall.

  The Panic Manual — Authority: 110
  Dirty Fences and Cults – such a good combo at the Black Cat on January 14. I had never heard of the Dirty Fences and don’t usually go for the punk-rock sound they create, but I found myself thoroughly enjoying their performance. I was also suitably impressed by the four dedicated fans who came out and made a ...

  DelugeOp: Radical Christian Action — Authority: 100
  Over my short life I’ve seen the cults continue to grow, despite their disadvantages. They do not have a strong basis for belief in their systems.
