The Cult announce 2016 Fall and winter tour dates:
Their new album “Hidden City” was produced by Bob Rock (Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Bryan Adams, Metallica), Hidden City features 12 tracks and is the third and final entry in a trilogy, which began with 2007’s Born into This and 2012’s Choice of Weapon. The album has been described by Cult lead guitarist Billy Duffy as “more guitar heavy” than previous albums and is notable for being the band’s first album with bassist Grant Fitzpatrick and The Cult’s first album since their 1994 self-titled album not to feature exiting bassist Chris Wyse.
“Hidden City is a metaphor for our spiritual lives, our intimate interior lives,” frontman Ian Asbury told Loudwire about the new album. “I find today’s gurus are trying to peddle some cure, product or insight as if it’s a new phenomenon. My place is to respond, not react, to observe, participate and share through words and music. There is no higher authority than the heart.”
Hidden City is available for pre-order in a variety of bundle choices in CD, digital and vinyl formats. For more information, click here.
