Cut (Golden Earring album)


Cut is an album by Dutch hard rock band Golden Earring, released in 1982. The album spawned the hit song "Twilight Zone," which reached #1 in the Netherlands and #1 in the United States on Billboards Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks
The album's cover image is the 1964 photo Cutting the Card Quickly taken by M.I.T. Professor "Doc" Edgerton showing the jack of diamonds playing card being shredded by a bullet. The image is used in the music video of "Twilight Zone" in which the card represents the life of the rogue espionage agent.
A music video was also made to support the second single released from the album, "The Devil Made Me Do It." However, the song and video saw limited airplay in the United States, because its lyrics contain the word "bullshit."
