Stream/purchase - https://orcd.co/npxym7m
Cologne, Germany based “brutal post-punks” TV CULT are delighted to announce a run of UK headline tour dates for January 2026, with additional EU dates also on sale now.
Following a recent spin for their latest single ‘Overpressure’, the band were featured artist in the Getting To Know You segment on Daniel P Carter’s BBC R1 Rock Show last night, with further international radio airplay from NPR, KEXP and more.
TV CULT released their critically-acclaimed second album, Industry, on Flight 13 Records earlier this autumn, available on 12” vinyl with 300 limited "Industry" grey copies and 200 black.

The artwork for Industry features a photograph from world famous Köln based photographer Boris Becker’s ‘Konstruktionen’ series (http://www.boris-becker.com).
TV Cult are an eighties-inspired Post-Punk band from Cologne, Germany. Driven by brooding, domineering bass lines, cold and frantic guitars, powerful drums, and vocals that alternate between gothic croon and golden-era DC hardcore, TV Cult create a sound that blends the best of bands like Joy Division, Black Flag and Idles, yet is truly unique.
Recorded in the winter of 2022 at 79 Sound Studios, the four-piece released their widely praised debut LP Colony in November 2023 via Flight 13 Records. Since then TV Cult have completed their own headline tours across Germany, Austria and France as well as supported hot property names High Vis, DITZ, Militarie Gun, USA Nails, Ist Ist and Home Front across Europe.
Their new album Industry was preceded by early single ‘Communion’ which was released earlier this spring, earning a flurry of praise from underground music media including VISIONS Magazine and IDLES’ Adam “Dev” Devonshire on his Rinse FM show, Bruiser.
Second single ‘Crack The Whip’ is a bruising hardcore track with a dark electronic edge that echoes the rich diversity of the German alternative music scene that TV CULT call home—a politically charged slice of brutalism that shines a light on the lack of leadership and moral direction plaguing European governments.
With the release of Industry, TV CULT are charting darker waters than ever before, exploring themes including the decline of western culture and rejecting the belief systems that are presented to us.
Recorded by Christoph Scheidel at 79 Sound Studios in Cologne, the album was mixed at Holy Mountain Studios, London by Misha Hering (High Vis, Idles) and mastered by Brad Boatright (Off!, Sleep, Stranger Things OST) at Audiosiege, Portland.
The band are currently riding a wave of underground press frenzy, and are now setting their sights on taking their brutalist approach to wider audiences in the UK.
