The Cult has set "Born Into This" as the title of its new album, tentatively due on September 25 via Roadrunner Records in conjunction with The Cult imprint label, New Wilderness. The group's first CD since 2001 is currently being recorded in London with producer Youth (Verve, Primal Scream), who will be adding final touches and mixing.

In the meantime, The Cult, led by founding members vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, will embark on a series of European arena shows with rock legends The Who starting June 5th. The band will be adding headline dates and festival appearances along the route, building on the overwhelming reaction to their 2006 sell-out world tour. A U.S. headline tour will follow in the fall.

The Cult's current touring lineup includes principals Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy alongside bassist Chris Wyse, drummer John Tempesta (ex-White Zombie, Testament, Exodus, Helmet) and rhythm guitarist Mike Dimkich.Type your summary here.
