Following their recent successful European tour, which included sharing the stage with IGGY & THE STOOGES at Knebworth (UK) and Pink Pop (Holland), THE CULT announce plans to release the first of their recent recordings on the newly formatted 'capsule' collection (the capsule format being the vision of Ian Astbury).

Partnering with Aderra Media Technologies, the capsule will be available on September 14th and will consist of new songs 'Every Man and Woman Is A Star' and 'Siberia,' live recordings from the recent internationally sold-out Love Live tour, as well as short film, A Prelude To Ruins (directed by Ian Astbury & Rick Rogers).

The capsule will be available in several formats including MP3, CD / DVD (Dual Disc) and 12" vinyl in limited quantities for a limited time. The first song 'Every Man and Woman Is A Star' was debuted at the Knebworth Festival UK and released the same day as an iTunes exclusive.

The latest recordings were guided by legendary producer Chris Goss (UNKLE, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE, TOO MANY DJ's, MASTERS OF REALITY). A mixture of violent guitars, emotive vocal performances with high melody and driving beats.

After a successful sold out Australian tour in May this year, the pairing of The Cult and THE BLACK RYDER continues (Australian cinematic psych) throughout North America with the first phase beginning September 14th in San Diego.
