TV on The Radio Latest News

Jane’s Addiction fans have been waiting nearly eight years for a follow-up to 2003’s Strays. The LA rock band, helmed by singer Perry Farrell, guitarist Dave Navarro and drummer Stephen Perkins, have finally returned with a new disc, The Great Escape Artist, which comes out today (Oct. 18) via Capitol Records. The album, a surging return to the group’s signature alt-rock, was...
Emanuel and the Fear is a joyful, 11-piece pop outfit spilling ink on all the right places—splashed across L Magazine, featured in the Voice, playing out sold out shows with David Byrne, TV on the Radio and Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson in attendance. The band of Brooklynites forms a plush extravaganza below, inflecting Deerhoof with a little Sufjan-orchestra-lite. Then, “The Rain...
Following the rather lackluster Coachella announcement last week, comes Bonnaroo’s initial lineup for 2009.  At first glance, it’s quite the stellar lineup of bands, with the one glaring addition that jumped out at me being the Beastie Boys!  The one time I attempted to see them live was back in 2000, when they were set to tour with Rage Against the Machine, but was...
The Recession, 9/11, The Internet, Terrorism, George Bush, July 7th 2005, Big Brother, Reality Television, Social Networking, Celebrity, Tony Blair, Online Shopping, The First Black President, The Smoking Ban, I-Pods, Borat, Banksy, Chavs… In no chronological or logical order, these are just some of the things that the decade dubbed “the noughties” may be remembered...
 Goldielocks Back again for Day Two of the 2009 Camden Crawl. There are more folk about than yesterday, what with it being a Saturday and all, and it is gloriously sunny. So best to get inside quick. Starting off in the World’s End once more, we catch the end of a set from Bleech, who are just as much fun as they were yesterday. A venue we have not been to yet is The Constitution, a...

TV on The Radio MP3s

[MP3] TV on the Radio - Will Do by 1077 The End TV on the Radio has some new song. Tried to listen, skipped around, was pretty boring… but as always, u can expect every1 to ‘totally love’ this song and everything that TV on the Radio does. Really don’t have much 2 say. I guess this is a ‘relevant release’, but u get the feeling that TV on the...
Wow! Only two months into 2009 and we have already had over a dozen of highly anticipated albums. Yeah Yeah Yeahs can now be added to that list. And while you’re at it, add them to the list of bad ass covers. The Strokes might have heralded in the new age of garage rock in the early 2000s, but no one has completely owned the genre like YYY. They’re commitment to edgy, but approachable...
Photo Illustration by Nick Duncan. Click for hi-res version. 2008 is taking it’s final bow and a what a year it has been. While ‘07 was dominated by a slew of  indie rock heavy hitters releasing awesome albums (Spoon, Of Montreal, Arcade Fire, Wilco,  Radiohead) this is a year where new talent seems to be garnering the most attention.  For me at least,...
What, no guitars!?  On April 13 in the UK and April 14 in the US, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs will release their third album, It’s Blitz!. With strictly no guitars, Nick Zinner’s trademark clunky and erratic axe is replaced by slushy synths and what sounds like syncopated drum machine beats. Where has the sound of the classically lauded Goliath of all power trios gone? Brian Chase...
In a little less then the month you are going to be bombarded by an album called Dissolver from a band called Iran. People will try and tell you that this band is a side project of TV On the Radio’s because it includes Kyp Malone in the band and because Dave Sitek twiddled the knobs. All of this sort of makes sense, but if you delve a little deeper you will learn that Iran pre-dates TV On...

TV on The Radio Reviews

The last Lollapalooza of the this decade is in the books and despite, what on paper, looked like a less than impressive lineup, it turned out another weekend of exciting and memorable moments just as in years past. Every year going at Lolla, one is expected to battle oppressive heat, but on Friday this year, Mother Nature decided to throw in a little something extra - a rain storm that only...
