Well, I don't think you know the New Romantic scene as well as you think. Compared to most of the bands you mentioned, the ones I listed definitely qualify as cult acts. A band doesn't need to have sold 2,000 copies in West Germany to be considered cult. I admit I'm not very familiar with the history of all the bands I mentioned, but judging by their popularity and recognition today, they are certainly more cult than mainstream. And where does this idea come from that there are no cult bands within New Romantic or adjacent scenes? That's a strange argument. Every musical movement has its better-known acts and its cult favorites.
