The Cult is the sixth studio album from English rock band The Cult. It was released in October 1994 on Beggars Banquet Records and is the band's last album on Sire Records in the US. The album is the band's second release with producer Bob Rock and is commonly referred to as the "Black Sheep" record, due to the image of a Manx Loaghtan black sheep on the front cover. The album also features a rare occasion of Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy sharing a writing credit with another band member, as bassist Craig Adams is credited as co-writer of "Universal You".
