The Cult sign to Cooking Vinyl
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 16 May 2011
The Cult have signed a global deal with Cooking Vinyl for their ninth studio album, which is due to be released in the autumn.
Confirming the deal, the band’s guitar man Billy Duffy told CMU: “We are very much looking forward to returning to our UK roots in many ways working with Cooking Vinyl”, while frontman Ian Astbury added with regards his new label: “We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship”.
For the label, Cooking Vinyl Director Rob Collins said: “I tried to sign Ian’s first band, Southern Death Cult when I was a scout at Virgin in the early 80s. I think I paid for coach fares to London and they promptly signed to Beggars Banquet. It’s great to finally be working with Ian, Billy and co”.
