In this interview, the Auckland-based punk band CCTV talk about how the band came together, the New Zealand housing crisis—a recurring theme in their music—and give a hint of what to expect on their first full-length. The five-piece put out their incredible debut EP, Austerity Blues, about a year ago (Feb. 6, 2025), and followed that up with Watch, a three-track EP, in November.
