TVOD - "Alien" | Post-Trash Premiere

by Dan Goldin (@post_trash_)

Brooklyn’s TVOD (Television Overdose) have earned themselves a reputation as one of those bands you truly need to see live. While the pandemic put a serious damper on live music, the sextet wasted no time getting back into action, bringing their unhinged performances back to adoring audiences, equal parts sweaty, reckless, and undeniably fun. It’s time to bring the show on the road this October, as TVOD head out across the US in support of last year’s Victory Garden LP and a string of upcoming singles. The first of those singles is the infectious “Alien,” a song that brings the band’s beer soaked boogie and punk energy to the forefront.

Picking up where the immediate accessibility of Victory Garden left off, TVOD continue to shift and evolve, with a focus toward explosive hooks and memorable songwriting. The band collide dense rhythms with waves of synth punk and rattled garage rock for a song rich with dynamics, harmonies, and momentum. “Alien” ebbs and flows without losing its charm, pulling back just to slam forward again, as doubled vocals and sweetened harmonies stick like glue

Speaking about the track, TVOD’s Tyler Wright shared:

"This was a song I came up with while sitting on the floor of my practice space feeling sorry for myself. I was having a lot of feelings of self doubt and jealousy at the time and for some reason I could not stop painting this mental image that there was a little envious martian man slowly eating my brain and trying to take over my life. It's amazing what some painful emotions and a couple catchy guitar riffs can become."
