During Grammy Week in 1996 I interviewed Ian Astbury at the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA for Detroit ZRock. The Cult had broken up in 1995 and Ian had started a new band called The Holy Barbarians. In May of '96 they released their only album 'Cream'. Ian talks about the sounds they were trying to create and cites The Beatles and Garbage as influences. Although work started on a second album, Ian went solo instead with The Cult eventually getting back together in 1999.
