TV CULT’s second album Industry delves into the dark undercurrents of today’s political climate, mixing aggression and beauty across a post-punk landscape. With standout tracks like "Surrender" and "Gavage," the Cologne-based quartet blends rough punk elements with synth-infused melodies reminiscent of the 80s and 90s, making for an intriguing listening experience that captures both frustration and awe.
As they navigate these complex themes, one can’t help but wonder: How effective is music in voicing societal discontent, and can it truly foster change in a time of political turmoil?
