Available for the first time on vinyl, Weapon of Choice is an earlier take on The Cult’s album Choice of Weapon, produced by Chris Goss, before Bob Rock came on board to help finish the album. For Record Store Day 2026, pressed on silver effect vinyl and housed in a mirrorboard sleeve.
Known by fans as the prequel to Choice of Weapon, the collection stands on its own: more immediate, raw, and a rare look into The Cult’s creative process at a pivotal moment. Tracks like “Supreme” (an early take on “Honey From a Knife”), “The Bones” (a precursor to “For the Animals”), and “Gibraltar” (the foundation of “The Wolf”) showcase the band reconnecting with their signature heavy-atmospheric sound while pushing into new territory.
Strictly limited to 3,000 copies worldwide.
This is a 2026 Record Store Day release.
