Telehealth sign to Sub Pop, announce new album & tour, share “Cool Job” video

Inspired by groups like Devo, Telehealth are a bit like Seattle’s version of Brooklyn’s Bodega, making synthy punk that is very plugged in to plugged-in culture. The band, who are led by married couple Alexander Attitude (synths/vox/guitar) and Kendra Cox (synths/vox), released their debut album in 2023, and that same year also had a 7″ out via the Sub Pop Singles Club. They’ve now entered an official “creative partnership” with the label, and their second album, Green World Image, will be out May 15.

The first single is the nervy “Cool Job.” Telehealth say: “‘Cool Job’ pulls from meme culture pastiche and ‘Temporary Secretary’ trope to skewer the fantasy that the right job will save your life. Written mid-burnout, it’s an anti-work anthem about corporate rot, identity collapse, and trying to care about meetings that could have been emails while everything else is falling apart!!!! The video supports and contrasts the song by documenting the (extremely profitable!!!!) surreal act of touring and creating (/attempting) joy as the world unravels – stitched from internet-found clips and camcorder footage from our 2025 south(east) tour, filtered through modern brain-rot, simulation/simulacra VHS corporate aesthetics.”

Watch the “Cool Job” video below.
