The Cult have added an extra London show to their upcoming anniversary tour. Check out ticket details below.

The announcement comes just days after the rock icons announced details of an upcoming UK tour for the end of 2024 – which will see them celebrate 40 years as a band.

Upcoming shows will be held in 10 cities across the country, and mark the milestone anniversary of Ian Astbury and co. coming together as we recognise them today – swapping their name from the original title ‘Death Cult’ into ‘The Cult’.

Now, following the initial date at London’s Royal Albert Hall selling out, the band have announced details of a second show in the UK capital, this time held at the Roundhouse venue in Camden.

The date is added as an extension to the original run of shows and will take place on Tuesday, November 5 – the day after the Royal Albert Hall gig. Tickets are available now and you can check out an updated itinerary for the UK shows below.

The dates for 2024 come following a tour the band embarked on last year, celebrating 40 years since their first formation under the name ‘Death Cult’.

Taking place around the UK, Ireland and the US, the tour was called ‘Death Cult 8323’ and saw Duffy and Astbury return to play iconic venues they previously performed in at the start of their career.

The live shows focused on Death Cult and their eponymous EPs, and also boasted a setlist that spanned “the three phases of the band, from Southern Death Cult, to Death Cult, and The Cult’s first two albums: ‘Dreamtime’ (1984) and ‘Love’ (1985).”

Announcing the new run of dates, guitarist Billy Duffy said: “Following up from the great energy of ‘Death Cult 8323’ shows, I’m looking forward to bringing that sense of celebration of the band’s music, and the communion with our fans, to ‘Cult 8424’… CFFC. Let the ceremony commence!”

More recently, Billy Duffy joined Johnny Marr on stage in Frome last summer to play tracks by The Smiths and Depeche Mode.

42 DUGG ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM ‘4EVA US NEVA THEM,’ DROPS FIRST SINGLE

image

42 Dugg has released a new single called “Win Wit Us,” which will be on his forthcoming new album called 4eva Us Neva Them.

The “We Paid” rapper took to his Instagram on Friday (May 17) to reveal that the album will be dropping on June 7.

“Don’t worry I’ll Turn this bitch back UP,” he wrote in the caption. “4eva Us Neva them my first album JUNE mufucking 7th‼️‼️‼️‼️ Here’s ah lil something to set the tone though #winwitus OUT NOW.”

Check out the post, and the first single, below.

 

 

Last month, 42 Dugg made headlines when a photo of him playing basketball with his daughter went viral for all the wrong reasons.

The photo was part of a carousel post Dugg made on April 24, which also included shots of the rapper riding on a four-wheeler with his son.

When the photos were reposted by 2Cool2Bl0g, people couldn’t help but notice the artist’s height similarity to his daughter, and proceeded to make jokes in the comments.

“Man I thought this was 2 kids,” one person wrote. Another person said: “He the same size as the kids.”

Additional comments included, “Which one is #42dugg?” “the damn car taller then him” and, “There’s no way he driving the Cullinan without a booster seat ayoooo.”

42 Dugg was released from prison in late 2023 after a year and a half, and recently opened about the struggles of his life behind bars.

During an appearance on the Million Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast last November, the Detroit rapper reflected on his time in lockup and the hardships of his grueling job inside.

“Bruh, they had me in there working in the kitchen,” he revealed as co-hosts Gillie and Wallo had a laugh. “They was being funny like … man, waking me up at four in the morning, bruh, like I’m talkin’ ’bout killing me, bruh.”

He went on to explain that he immediately started to think of excuses to get out of work, saying that he couldn’t work on his feet because he got shot. As a result, he was made to wrap 1,000 forks instead, which Gillie Da Kid joked made Dugg the “prison waiter.”
