Powerman 5000 have released the music video for “Cult Leader”, giving fans another taste of their upcoming New Wave album, available everywhere October 27th via Pavement Entertainment.

“Cult Leader” pumps up the propaganda with the ultimate theme song for the Follow Me Age. The song also makes a commentary on society’s modern vices.

According to vocalist Spider One, “We live in a culture of cults. It's not just Charles Mason or Jim Jones anymore. It's Trump, Taylor Swift, Kardashian, Kilo f**king Ren or whatever! It's social media. Subscribe! Like! Follow! Follow! Follow! I'm just throwing my hat into the ring to be your Cult Leader. #drinkthekoolaid”

New Wave is PM5K’s eleventh official release since forming in 1992 and continues the strides and success from their platinum-selling album Tonight The Stars Revolt! to their most recent chart-topping single in 2014, “How to Be A Human”.
