"Honey From A Knife", the new video from The Cult, can be seen below.
Directed by Rick Rodgers and produced by The Cult's Ian Astbury and New York City-based film company Mechanizedmules,
the clip was shot on location in the Washington Heights neighborhood
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 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."
