Our favorite quote (via Pitchfork) about Cults has to be " there's more information on the wrapper of a candy bar than there is on the internet about Cults." Although that quote was from 2009, it remains pretty damn accurate. Here's what we do know: they're part 60's pop, part indie pop with lots of random samples that create a mysteriously light sound. We also know they've only release four, and we mean four, songs (which can be downloaded for free at their bandcamp page) and they don't seem to disagree with the accusation that they sort of appeared out of thin air. At 21 years old, the NY-based duo started the band as a project. One short year after making the internet rounds, they've been snatched up by Columbia records, and are releasing a full length this May.
Unless you've been living under a rock, chances are you've heard their insta-catchy single, "Go Outside." For those who haven't, we've posted it below.
