Terrorvision are back! WE ARE NOT ROBOTS, the band’s first album since 2011’s Super Delux, is a marvellously raucous and eclectic statement of intent. A record of music to verify the band’s existence and refresh their legendary, incendiary live shows, which still draw gasps and grins in equal measure.
From the opening two-song punk tirade of ‘Electrocuted’ and ‘The Night that Lemmy Died’, through the pure, foot-stomping pop-rock of ‘Daydream’, to the singalong melodic bliss of ‘Opposites Attract’, WE ARE NOT ROBOTS delivers a Bradford-certified punch on the nose, kiss on the cheek and the party to end them all.
Lead singer Tony Wright used explosive single ‘The Night That Lemmy Died’, to celebrate the old-school mentality of bands like Terrorvision that play, write and rock their own tunes. “It is an ode to the hard rocking in a world of twee.” Tony explains: “A tribute to all bands that play and write. That drive through the night to forge their way rather than entering a TV talent show. The world needs people like Lemmy and so we wrote this to remember what he meant to all us rockers. It's almost a hymn!”
In September 2024, Terrorvision will take this renewed sense of enthusiasm on the road, and to their army of loyal fans, on the WE ARE ON TOUR tour. From London to Glasgow, Terrorvision is back to remind us that music can rock our socks off and make us smile, all in the very same moment.

By the end of 1993, the band had recorded their second album, How To Make Friends and Influence People with producer Gil Norton in New York City, which spawned five top-30 singles and several Kerrang! Awards to boot.
Third album, Regular Urban Survivors released in 1996, featured hits like ‘Perseverance’ and quickly went Gold. Fourth album, ‘Shaving Peaches’ saw a stylistic shift, working with producers such as Edwyn Collins and the Utah Saints; ‘Tequila’ from the album reached number 2 in the UK charts in 1999.

In 2023, they collaborated with Embrace guitarist Rick McNamara to produce new album WE ARE NOT ROBOTS. Mixed by Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters, McFly) the record is a 37-minute riot of shiny pop hooks and in-yer-face hard rock, set for release in September 2024.
