. The title was inspired by an experience frontman Ian Astbury had at a music festival in Finland when the sun was still up in the middle of the night. “People are laying on the grass, making out, drinking, smoking,” he recalls. “There were rows of flowers at the front of the stage from the performances earlier that evening. It was an incredible moment. I was compelled by this vision, this anomaly, this memory, of being under the midnight sun.
As for “Give Me Mercy,” Astbury says “it perfectly fit these thoughts I’d been having about our culture’s need to move past assumptions of duality. We need new language because words can’t express where we’re going.”. The Cult returns to the road tomorrow alongside Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and Zola Jesus in St. Paul, Minn., and has dates on the books through July 30 in Orillia, Ontario.
