The Cult Reveals ‘Under The Midnight Sun’ Details

The Cult will reveal their 11th album ‘Under The Midnight Sun’ in October and have announced the news with the premiere of ‘Give Me Mercy’.

The title track was inspired when The Cult were performing in the summer in Finland where the sun didn’t set. “It’s three in the morning, the sun’s up, and there’s all these beautiful people in this halcyon moment,” Astbury remembers. “People are laying on the grass, making out, drinking, smoking. There were rows of flowers at the front of the stage from the performances earlier that evening. It was an incredible moment.”

“Under The Midnight Sun” track listing:
01. Mirror
02. A Cut Inside
03. Vendetta X
04. Give Me Mercy
05. Outer Heaven
06. Knife Through Butterfly Heart
07. Impermanence
08. Under The Midnight Sun
