Accompanying the tour announcement is the release of The Cult’s fiery, expressionistic new video for “Vendetta X”, the third single from “Under The Midnight Sun”.

The song’s stylized cinematic reimagining was directed by the band’s longtime collaborator Juan Azulay (known for his powerful imagery created with groundbreaking artists spanning Sigur Rós to Lydia Lunch). The video is available to watch at this link

Produced by Tom Dalgety (Pixies, Ghost, Royal Blood) and marking the band’s debut release on Black Hill Records, “Under The Midnight Sun” vividly demonstrates how The Cult’s co-founding members, Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy, continue to push further into their esoteric strengths on their 11th album. Flanked by Duffy’s atmospheric riffs and incandescent solos, Astbury reaches new heights of sinewy vulnerability in his vocal presence – bolstering the album’s stylistic alchemy with a lyrical perspective as evocative and mystical as the paradox in the album’s title.

As The Cult return to the stage to launch the next chapter of “Under The Midnight Sun,Astbury hopes that the album’s new dimensions provoke reactions both primal and sublime in listeners’ consciousness – echoing what he himself experienced during its creation. “At the core of it all, music contains the vibrational frequency of how we once communicated before we could even speak,” Astbury says. “Bird songs, animal calls, string theory, quantum physics, psychedelics… The record ultimately becomes about discovering and celebrating anew the beauty from those strangely natural moments that surround and inspire us.
