The track arrives ahead of Cult of Venus’ European tour with St. Vincent.

Mysterious New York artist Cult of Venus has released her second single of 2025, the dreamy ‘Sinner’.

Arriving via her imprint Liberty Belle Records (FUTURES/Virgin Music), ‘Sinner’ is the fifth single from Cult of Venus and veers into synth pop territory with a touch of ‘80s Kate Bush.

Speaking on the single, Cult Of Venus says: “A word used to invoke guilt, ‘Sinner’ is for all women who have been made to feel shame for any part of themselves. It is about radical self-acceptance as a road to redemption.”

The track follows the surprise global success of her previous single ‘Algorithm’, which has been streamed over 900,000 times across all platforms.

Despite only having five songs to her name, Cult of Venus has attracted attention from some of the world’s biggest tastemakers and radio stations, including Alt Nation, BBC Radio 1, KROQ, BBC 6Music, 98.7 Los Angeles and KCRW.

Her music, especially the single ‘Algorithm’, have become extremely popular in Australia, with Sydney and Melbourne two of Cult of Venus’ top markets with over 10,000 monthly listens across the two cities.

A multi-disciplinary performance artist who has taken to the stage at MOMA PS1, Fotografiska's Chapel Bar for David LaChappelle’s “FAITH” and The Women's March NYC, Cult of Venus is a mesmerising new artist who is one to keep an eye on in the coming months.

‘Sinner’ by Cult of Venus is available now.
