Biography

Cults is an experimental pop duo formed in early 2010 by guitarist Brian Oblivion and vocalist Madeline Follin.

The duo released their self-titled album in 2011, followed by the breakup-inspired Static in 2013. After a hiatus, they returned with Offering in 2017, showcasing a diverse range of influences.

Throughout their career, Cults have evolved their sound, drawing inspiration from various genres and experiences. Despite the end of their romantic relationship, Oblivion and Follin continued to collaborate on music, with Follin also forming the band Follin with her brother. Cults' discography reflects their growth and musical exploration, culminating in the eclectic and multi-influenced Offering.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
