TVOD Release Second Single “Wet Brain”

Brooklyn based rockers, TVOD have today released a new single, “Wet Brain” from their forthcoming second album, The Farm, due out 16th October on Mothland.

For the infectious second single, TVOD deliver a punk rock dynamo that channels pent-up heartbreak anxiety into a heart-wrenching yet uplifting anthem. The 2-minute radio burner kicks off with a minimalistic intro where subliminal keyboard chimes act out a sonic hangover, quickly introducing a lyric-centric verse – perhaps an uncrumpled page out of singer-songwriter Tyler Wright’s private journals—before exploding into a truly anthemic chorus, driven by aggressive, cymbal-heavy drums and crashing distorted guitars.

“Slacker idiot anthem that first debuted at SXSW 2025. Inspired by ruining relationships, concurrent hair of the dogs, and wishing you had never said that dumb thing to your now ex. A post-punk tribute to Sixteen Candles.”  say TVOD

Less than a year afterthe release of their debut album, Party Time, TVOD were back in the studio, this time in Leeds, recording their second full-length with producer, Danny Blackburn of Adult DVD. The new album finds the band pushing their sound further without losing any of the raw nerve, crooked charm, and volatility that has already embedded them in the heart of the underground.

With The Farm, TVOD further polish their sharp, danceable brand of post-punk—driving basslines, punchy drums, and angular guitars with vocals that feel both detached and urgent. Drawing from underground influences while keeping a modern edge, these songs are gritty yet catchy, perfect for crowded venues and late-night sets. The album is propelled by a restless momentum, all the while reflecting the creative chaos of Brooklyn’s distinctive music scene.

At first glance, The Farm offers an idyllic escape – relief from the disillusionment and apathy entrenched in the American political and social landscape. But a closer look reveals that things aren’t as serene as they may seem. Written partly on a farm in Neufchâtel-en-Bray,France, the album draws parallel to a satirical commandment from George Orwell’s Animal Farm: “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

To that effect, the album explores themes with regards to power, hypocrisy, and a society that feels increasingly absurd, TVOD poking fun at authority while capturing anger, tension, and the collective unease of today. As social contracts collapse and human tenacity becomes commodified, city dwellers long for a simpler, rural lifestyle—only to find that the rot has spread even to the furthest reaches of modern life.

The album was recorded by Danny Blackburn (Adult DVD) at Nave Studios (Leeds, UK); Tyler Wright (singer-songwriter), Jenna Mark (synth, vocals), Mem Pahl (drums, piano, percussion), Denim Casimir (guitar, vocals), Serge Zbrizher (guitar), and Micki Piccirillo (bass), performing their punkified rock & roll scorchers in the span of two weeks. The album artwork shows a 12”x12” diorama crafted by Wright on his kitchen table that conjures up a disturbing scene from Orwell’s 1945 dystopian allegorical novella. 

“Wet Brain” follows the first single, “Rerun” which was released in May.

Known for their raw, unapologetic and unpredictable stage performances, TVOD have extensively toured the US, Canada and Europe, performing at major festivals like SXSW, Hopscotch, Sled Island, End of the Road, and Les Trans de Rennes.
