Love Cult is an experiment in hypnagogic shoegaze, fronted by the tape-manipulating talents of Russia’s Anya Kuts. Stifled by her rigorous years of hardcore academic studies in Music and Art, Anya began developing her own approach to decomposition, stripping her songs down to the barest bones of vocal howls and eerie textures. The resultant sound invites images of dark corridors with faintly glowing lights, filled with ghostly choruses and unsettling melodies, as though William Basinski was adapted for the club. Love Cult have released numerous cassette and vinyl releases and an LP on London’s Public Information label.
