After The Cult wraps up its remaining shows, the band will stop touring for the foreseeable future to focus on other projects.
Members Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy broke the news to fans on The Cult’s Instagram post Wednesday, Oct. 22.
“Mother Nature has a cycle of change and evolution that is inevitable. The moon’s phases change, tides rise and fall. Change is necessary for creation and rebirth. It is with this in mind that, following the remaining dates on our current North American The Cult/Death Cult 8525 Tour, we have decided to step away from touring for an undetermined amount of time,” the band wrote.
“We have toured extensively over the last few years and we shall now shift our focus to writing, recording new music, and exploring other projects that shall be revealed over time.
