Cults debut video for “Onions”
Cults, have released a new music video for “Onions,” the track is off their latest album To the Ghosts. Directed by Alice Fassi, whose work has been recognized at prestigious film festivals such as Cannes Lions, brought her unique blend of satire and horror to the clip. Madeline plays a tender housewife with a dark side, hiding a sadistic, thrill-seeker within. Brian plays her half-dead counterpart, likely fallen victim to one of Madeline’s homecooked brews. Set in a secluded country home circle 1980, the video unfolds with colorful cinematography, and a surreal, delightfully macabre charm.
Cults shadowy cinematic soundscapes and flickering melodic singalongs are evident throughout To the Ghosts. The band has perfected their signature vision on the expansive and acclaimed new record. More highlights include “Left My Keys,” “Crybaby,” and “Hung The Moon”.
The band, including Madeline Follin and Brian Oblivion have been touring non stop. Following To the Ghosts release, they embarked on their own U.S. headline tour in August, with a stop at Lollapalooza, and are now on the road again supporting Vampire Weekend. To wrap up 2024, they head to the UK and EU in November for more headline dates. See below for a complete Cults tour itinerary.
The creative process for the new album began during the pandemic when Cults started writing music on weekdays from 10am-5pm, with no deadlines or distractions. Written and recorded in Brian’s apartment, they later brought the music to Los Angeles for further collaboration with longtime producer and trusted creative confidant Shane Stoneback. To the Ghosts was co-produced by Cults & Shane Stoneback, mixed by John Congleton, and mastered by Heba Kadry NYC.
