Cults (Shervin Lainez)

In keeping with Cults cinematic trademark sound, Hung The Moon hinges on a sparse beat and loose bassline. Ethereal, airy and haunting it works perfectly as the album closer. Its woozy sway evokes a David Lynchian fever dream as Madeline serenades, “Let it saturate, a love in bloom, I know it’s you, you hung the moon.” Her vocals feedback into a siren’s wail, and the sound dissolves into silence.

“It has a Twin Peaks, roadhouse vibe,” notes Brian. “It’s a sweet nursery rhyme set to an ominous tone. It goes back to the concept of growing up. Life doesn’t stop when you check all of the boxes; it gets crazier. There’s always possibility, adversity, and fun up ahead.” The first two tracks unveiled from To The Ghosts were Left My Keys and Crybaby. Both display their uncanny ability to balance alternative sonic architecture with unassuming pop songcraft.

True outliers, Cults persist as the rare phenomenon equally comfortable collaborating with The Weeknd, rap titan J. Cole on his 6x-platinum smash She Knows, and maverick indie director Jim Jarmusch. Earlier this week their remix of Taylor Swift’s Fortnight dropped much to the delight of fans everywhere. Cults commented on social media saying they were “honoured to have been given the opportunity to remix legend Taylor Swift’s song.”

Cults will be spending the remainder of 2024 on the road. They’ll kick off their own U.S. headline tour in August, play Chicago’s Lollapalooza festival on 4th August, supporting Vampire Weekend on their extensive fall run and finally play a string of UK and EU headline dates in November.

The creative process for To The Ghosts began during the pandemic when the band starting writing music on weekdays from 10am-5pm, with no deadlines or distractions. The album was written and recorded in Brian’s apartment, and then brought to Los Angeles for further collaboration with longtime producer and trusted creative confidant Shane Stoneback. The forthcoming LP was co-produced by Cults & Shane Stoneback, mixed by John Congleton, and mastered by Heba Kadry NYC.

There are few concert settings in Britain as naturally dramatic as the Eden Sessions. Nestled within a former clay pit and framed by the iconic biomes of the Eden Project, the venue possesses a unique sense of occasion before a note is even played. On this June evening, the Cornish weather appears determined to play its part too. Persistent rain hangs over the site for much of the day, only to disappear almost on cue as Gary Lightbody, Nathan Connolly and Johnny McDaid walk on stage. It feels as though somebody has edited the weather into the evening’s script.
