THE CULT: New Album Title Announced

June 4, 2007

THE CULT has set "Born Into This" as the title of its new album, tentatively due on September 25 via Roadrunner Records in conjunction with THE CULT's imprint label, New Wilderness. The group's first CD since 2001 is currently being recorded in London with producer Youth (VERVE, PRIMAL SCREAM),who will be adding final touches and mixing.

THE CULT guitarist Billy Duffy told ChartAttack.com back in March, "We've got some ideas [for a new CD] down, circulating. Each album gets its own life and while it's early to really tell with this one because it's in the formative stages, it still feels trashy and sort of ramshackle, which I like. [Singer] Ian [Astbury] isn't singing with THE DOORS anymore and I think that's lifted his spirits for a CULT record, too."

THE CULT, led by founding members vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, will embark on a series of European arena shows with rock legends THE WHO starting June 5. The band will be adding headline dates and festival appearances along the route, building on the overwhelming reaction to their 2006 sell-out world tour. A U.S. headline tour will follow in the fall.

THE CULT's current touring lineup includes principals Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy alongside bassist Chris Wyse, drummer John Tempesta (ex-WHITE ZOMBIE, TESTAMENT, EXODUS, HELMET) and rhythm guitarist Mike Dimkich.
