PRAISE FOR IGUANA DEATH CULT"As the instruments swirl and trade solos, you can practically hear the growth of a group that’s been pushing itself further and further with every tour and every Belgian-stove fuelled jam session." - The Big Takeover
"With synth pushed to the fore over rebounding percussion and wirey guitar riffs, they still manage to wrap the message up in an enjoyable post-punk-funk fusion. If society’s going to the dogs, we might as well dance into the darkness, right?!" - Louder Than War
"'Oh No' captures the Dutch rockers’ manic universe of hyped-up garage rock" - American Songwriter
"Full of funky bass lines, rapid fills, a manic guitar and compelling vocals that sound like Devo if they’d gotten into spoken word [...] bold, barren, unbidden, yet welcome all the same." - Joyzine
"When your band name goes as hard as Iguana Death Cult you’d better damn well have the chops to back it up. Fortunately, this Dutch five-piece undoubtedly packs the muscle required, delivering potent guitar-forward manifestos bursting with angular attitude and a dash of casual nihilism that quickly enraptured audiences on both sides of the Atlantic." - Alt Citizen
"Like a tightly would Viagra Boys or Franz Ferdinand taking liberties with post-punk and 70s rock, the track is taut yet expansive, as the festival-friendly vocal melody and chorus entrance and energise the listener right from the off." - Analogue Trash
"'Pushermen' sees the band leaning into their penchant for careening garage rock, building on layers of tight and nervy guitar lines, shouted hooks, and raucous gang vocals. The resulting track recalls both the jagged post punk of Parquet Courts and the ironic sleaze of Viagra Boys, especially given its heavy dose of tongue-in-cheek lyrics." - Under the Radar
"Channeling Madness, New York No Wave, and The English Beat, this high-energy tune is manic, disjointed, and highly catchy. It perfectly captures the feeling of ADHD, leaping and jumping from rapid-fire call-and-response chants, sax solos, and a hypnotic staccato bassline to anchor the madness." - Post-Punk
"'Sensory Overload' is a blast of those spiky rhythms that we’ve come to expect from them, with wired and crazed saxophone blasts from legendary Dutch saxophonist Benjamin Herman that add another layer to their new wave sound." - Louder Than War
"Chaotic, frenzied, and decked out with just the right amount of saxophone, this track will appeal to fans of Parquet Courts and Sleaford Mods." - Glide Magazine
"This shouty, angular track comes from Iguana Death Cult‘s forthcoming album Echo Palace. 'Sensory Overload' lives up to its name in the best way possible as it’s a noisy track that doesn’t sit still for a second. Combining post-punk with jazzier moments, the band have created quite an invigorating offering" - Mix It All Up
"A slice of jittery sax fueled no-wave post punk from the Rotterdam quintet, try not to let this one get stuck in your head." - Full Time Aesthetic |

Earlier this year, Dutch rock band Iguana Death Cult shared their highly anticipated LP Echo Palace (out now via Innovative Leisure). Introduced with four stellar singles — "I Just Want A House," "Oh No," "Pushermen," and "Sensory Overload" — the record received praise from outlets such as DIY, Under the Radar, American Songwriter, Paste, and more.
To celebrate their new album, the band has just announced a string of North American tour dates, with a handful of East Coast shows with Frankie and the Witch Fingers. This new tour follows Iguana Death Cult's last 2023 US appearance at this year's SXSW (Austin, TX), where they played a total of nine showcases. Following the festival, Paste Magazine noted that the band was one of the "20 Best Acts" they saw there: "I knew I had to see Iguana Death Cult as soon as I heard the band’s name. And they didn’t disappoint. From the word 'go,' the whole crowd was dancing and pushing to their garage and psych-rock extravaganza."
Tickets for all of the Iguana Death Cult's forthcoming tour dates are on sale now. Find more information below.
