The Cult are set to return with a brand new cd on May 22nd. The album is called Choice Of Weapon and Rolling Stone is streaming the first single, "Lucifer" here plus you can check out an interview with Ian Astbury here. In the interview Astbury brought up the Loutallica (Lou Reed + Metallica) record Lulu and made some interesting comments about Lou Reed:
"His body of work is stellar, he is one of our greatest laureates. If you know anything about Lou Reed, he's not well right now. He's deteriorating, his body's sick, he's getting frail and fragile. He's chosen Metallica to be his muscle, to be his armor, so he can come out one more time and make a statement of what's happening in his internal life, and he's using this Weimar Republic play, Lulu, to put himself over. If you actually listen to the record, there's some phenomenal moments on it, by anybody's standards."
