Cult Leader Unleash Gnarly New Single “Isolation in the Land of Milk and Honey”
Of all the places for one to be isolated, I doubt the Land of Milk and Honey would be the worst. If my inner biblical scholar is recalling correctly, Moses was tripping balls one day and heard God tell him (through means of a burning bush, of course) to free the Israelites from slavery and bring them to a “good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey…”
Long story short, the Promised Land sounds pretty dope to me. Fertile soil, abundant opportunity, no slavery, and all that good stuff. However, Cult Leader vocalist Anthony Lucero tells us of their newest track, “‘Isolation in the Land of Milk and Honey’ is about mental self-cannibalism.” Oh, ok. I guess that makes sense, given that “Fraternization in the Land of Milk and Honey” isn’t what we’re talking about here.
The new song is here just a few days ahead of their upcoming album, A Patient Man, which will be out this Friday (November 9th); pre-order here. If their last single was a bit too gloomy for you, fret not, ‘cause this one is as punishing as they get. Stream below, pre-order the new record here, and check out Cult Leader’s upcoming tour dates listed beneath the video.
