The Cult and Salem remix NEW VIDEO RELEASE


The Cult along with Salem have release a remix version of the song “Elemental Light” from The Cult’s latest album “Choice of Weapon.” Ian Astbury reached out to Salem as an admirer in regards to remixing one of the songs off of their latest release. The band responded with the track “Elemental Light” as their choice for a remix.

The remix of the song itself is extremely peaceful and thought provoking. It reminds me of something I would listen to while meditating into a deep trance.

The video was directed by Kostas Seremetis a long time artist and cinematographer. He took the song to a whole new level of something tragic and beautiful at the same time. The result is more of a short film than an actual music video, that will make you think about life and humanity on many different levels.

Check out the video here:


Here is what Ian Astbury had to say about the video:

 “The sentiment of this film captures the loss of wilderness, and a generation trying to make sense of the trash heap they have inherited. It evokes nature versus man, that struggle (and) desire to control nature and ultimately death.” -Ian Astbury
