ult followers should delight in what has to be one of the more comprehensive DVD packages assembled to date. The disc's 19 songs (plus two bonus videos), including some live performances, are spread out over some 90 minutes and feature every single released by the British band between 1984 and '95, when singer (and fashion plate) Ian Astbury, guitarist Billy Duffy, and their various bandmates were in their heyday. Several are introduced by Astbury and Duffy, who supply amusing, occasionally self-deprecating reminiscences, and all can be individually selected from an elaborate, graphically rich menu. The bonus discography is wondrous to behold: complete details and notes are supplied for every Cult album over the course of a remarkable 74 pages. Rather less interesting are three separate interviews (from '86, '91, and '94) with the two leaders–but hey, it's all about the music, man, and Pure Cult has plenty of that.
