Cults is an American indie pop band hailing from the vibrant city of New York. Formed in 2010, this talented group continues to captivate audiences with their unique sound and infectious energy.
With a distinctive blend of catchy melodies, dreamy vocals, and nostalgic vibes, Cults has carved out their own space in the music industry. Their music resonates with listeners, evoking a sense of nostalgia while still feeling fresh and modern.
Since their formation, Cults has released several critically acclaimed albums and singles that have garnered them a dedicated fanbase worldwide. Their live performances are known for being electrifying and captivating, leaving audiences wanting more.

Cults have embarked on a radical reimagining, both of the band’s sound and its dynamic, and the result is the NYC indie duo’s utterly mesmerizing fourth album, Host. Written more collaboratively than ever before and recorded primarily with live instruments for the first time, the collection marks the start of a bold new chapter for the band, one fueled by an ever-deepening trust and a boundless appetite for growth and experimentation.

The songs here are deceptively charming, with lush, airy arrangements that belie their dark, weighty lyrics. The production is rich and multifaceted to match, blending retro and futuristic palettes into a spellbinding swirl of high-def indie rock and lo-fi bedroom pop. As its title suggests, Host is an exploration of the sinister dynamics at play in a parasitic relationship, but rather than dwell in the discomfort, the record charts a cathartic journey towards freedom and self-reliance, reveling in the power that comes from standing your ground and declaring independence in the face of exploitation and manipulation.
