The Cult have shared a new song today with the release of ‘A Cut Inside’, off their forthcoming new album Under The Midnight Sun. An album highlight, ‘A Cut Inside’ rides guitarist Billy Duffy’s lithe electric lead and hypnotic rhythms, with lead singer Ian Astbury eying the community around him with suspicion. “No heathens in heaven/ No sweet surrender/ Outsiders forever/ Ghosts of our lives,” he emotes. The song refuses to be contained.
‘A Cut Inside’ premiered with BBC 6Music on Monday (Sept 5th) alongside an interview with Billy Duffy on the Craig Charles show.
‘A Cut Inside’ follows the debut single ‘Give Me Mercy,’ a song that Consequence said “feels classically Cult, as the band envelopes their gothic rock influences with a modern sheen.” It also proved a UK radio hit, becoming a longstanding feature on the Planet Rock A-List as well as receiving support from Radio 2.
Under the Midnight Sun was produced by Tom Dalgety (Pixies, Ghost, Royal Blood) and will be released October 7th via Black Hill Records.
