The Cult premiere
their new film clip for the track, "Honey From A Knife" on
VEVO today. "Honey From A Knife" is the latest
single from The Cult's critically acclaimed new album, Choice
of Weapon.
Directed by Rick Rodgers and produced by The
Cult's Ian Astbury and NYC based film company Mechanizedmules,
the "Honey From A Knife" film clip was shot on
location in the Washington Heights nieghborhood of Manhattan on a RED
Scarlet camera with Super Speed lenses provided by ARRI.
"Honey From A Knife," rooted
in the seductiveness of addiction, was inspired by the following Buddhist
precept, and Ian Astbury states that the accompanying film
reveals a "desperate descent into a fractured psyche":
"Wealth and beauty, to a man who will not
relinquish them, are like a knife covered with honey which, even before he
has had the pleasure of eating the honey, cuts the tongue of the child that
licks it".
