But the 'Choice of Weapon' album is much more than a revival of past glories, it's also a chance for the band to show their range and experiment without going overboard. Wilderness Now' is one of the disc's more intriguing moments. It's one of the slower cuts on the record and it really takes hold with the band's string backing. And 'Life/Death' may be one of the bigger curveballs on the release, as it feels like it has a '50s era pacing, but the Cult give it their own modern stamp. Lyrically the song has substance as well as Astbury debates the essence of a man. In Loudwire's recent interview with Billy Duffy, he told us that the chemistry within the band was as good as it's ever been and that Astbury has been really excited with the new music. Duffy was so enthused that he added of the disc, "This one's pretty much a winner from the get g.

Choice of Weapon is the ninth album by the British rock band The Cult. The album was planned for release in 2011, but the release date had since been pushed to May 22, 2012. Recording sessions for Choice of Weapon began in March 2011 with Chris Goss, who produced the 2010 Capsule EPs. The sessions took place at studios in New York City, Los Angeles, California, and the "California desert". The album was finished in January 2012

They have, in Choice of Weapon, reasserted themselves as true masters of bombast electric riff charged rock. Half the album is Electric tinged rock perfection, the other half harks back to the Cult from the days of Love and is considered and understated. They complement each other brilliantly. The last track (stream above), This Night in the City Forever, takes both, screws them up together and throws in The Doors for an epic album finisher. This is very big and quite clever.

Choice Of Weapon" is, in my opinion, The Cult's strongest release since their controversial self-titled album in 1994. And, with the band's lineup maintained since "Born Into This", there's a welcoming tight cohesiveness to their playing, a sureness that just wasn't there before. This may as well mark the beginning of a much-needed, promising new phase in their career. All the other songs - including the four capsules on the bonus disc - have great hooks though, proving that the Ian Astbury/Billy Duffy team is far from burnt out. This is great news. Choice Of Weapon", while not quite as brilliant as their classic output, manages to generate enough light to keep them very much alive in my book. If The Cult would only pick this spark up and ignite more fire, this could well be a renaissance for the group. Keep them albums coming, there are still too many of us and the eagerness for the experience is stronger than ever.
