█ One of the finest British rock acts to have █
█ enjoyed worldwide success over the last few █
█ decades, The Cult has wrapped up recording Choice █
█ of Weapon (COOKCD548), the group's first studio █
█ album in five years. Released on 21st May 2012 on █
█ their new UK label Cooking Vinyl, its 10 tracks █
█ reveal the band at its rawest and most visceral, █
█ encapsulating cinematic visions and themes of █
█ love, revolt, and redemption. Choice of Weapon is █
█ the follow up to the critically-acclaimed 2007 █
█ release Born Into This that the UK's Mojo magazine █
█ called a wholehearted, utopian and irrefutably █
█ exciting record. Long-time Cult collaborator and █
█ producer Bob Rock (Metallica, Bush) - who produced █
█ one of The Cult's most successful albums, the █
█ platinum-certified Sonic Temple - put the █
█ finishing touches on the foundations that were █
█ laid by co-producer Chris Goss (Queens of the █
█ Stone Age, U.N.K.L.E., Masters of Reality). The █
█ record was written by Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy, █
█ recorded in New York City, Los Angeles, the █
█ California high desert, and the band s Witch █
█ Mountain studios in the Hollywood Hills between █
█ July and December 2011. The new release features █
█ founding members Astbury on vocals and Duffy on █
█ guitars, with drummer John Tempesta and bassist █
█ Chris Wyse. "We have had the opportunity to work █
█ with two of the most influential and talented █
█ producers in the world today, said Astbury. They █
█ pushed us beyond our comfort zone, and helped us █
█ craft Choice of Weapon. The album is aimed at the █
█ heart of The Cult's loyal following. It reflects █
█ the current discontent and destruction of our eco █
█ systems, the search for individual meaning against █
█ a tide of rampant materialism, narcissism and █
█ disconnected lives. We went deeper . . . we worked █
█ a bit harder on this record. We have great fans █
█ and they deserve our best, added Duffy, and I feel █
█ this is as strong as any album we have ever █
█ released. █
█ █
█ This "Definitive Edition" includes the original █
█ Capsule recordings. █
