The Cult had started work on their third album but, unhappy with the results, they asked Rick Rubin to remix one of the tracks. Rubin agreed to work with them, but only if they'd re-record the track with him. They ended up re-recording the whole album and delving into a more straight-ahead rock sound than on their previous, more gothic and melodic releases.
This is definitely a rock album. Wall to wall riffs that seem to draw equally from the gene-pools of AC/DC and Led Zep. I'd have to say too, this the most "Yeahs" I've ever heard in an album. Obviously we're not just talking about a standard 1 syllable "Yeah"; we're talking about an all caps, 2-3 syllable "YEE-EE-AH"
