Video: TV On The Radio - Golden Age

This may not be up for too long...

50. CSS - Donkey Zbyt duże oczekiwania powodują spore rozczarowania, ale czas i koncert pokazały, że na 'Donkey' jest co najmniej kilka świetnych popowych numerów. Tekstowo mniej inteligentnie niż na znakomitym debiucie, melodie mniej lotne, para mniejsza, ale... mimo wszystko CSS nadal grają pop na poziomie, a liderka nie opuszcza listy najbardziej wyrazistych dziewcząt przy mikrofonie. koncert w Barcelonie - bootleg (niedługo, być może, lepsza jakość) 49. Lindstrom - Where You Go I Go Too [...]

10. TV on the Radio, "The Golden Age" 9. Arcade Fire, "Black Mirror" 8. The Kills, "U R A Fever"... Continue reading "The Best Videos of 2008, Part 1" >

Resulta siempre difícil tener que elaborar una lista con sólo diez nombres que trate de resumir lo que consideramos mejor del año. En esta ocasión se quedaron fuera nombres como Bonnie 'Prince' Billie, Wire o David Holmes, que han estado en dura competencia hasta el último instante para formar parte de esta lista. Finalmente los elegidos son los siguientes: 10. The Mars Volta - The Bedlam in Goliath No me gusta este tipo de música; me suele aburrir y me desquicia. Sin embargo, no podéis imaginar [...]

Album #4: Dear Science by TV on the Radio It's kind of unfair that TV on the Radio possess so many talents and Dear Science puts them all on display: amazing production, innovative vocalists, great lyrics, and the ability to write incredibly sophisticated, yet catchy, songs. I've already praised Halfway Home, the album's opener, but the songs that follow are all of the same calibre. Dear Science cements TVOTR's status as one of this generation's most important bands. Watch: TV [...]

Return to Cookie Mountain , the TV on the Radio album released before this year's Dear Science , had jams of such epic proportions that most of the newer tracks didn't really have a fighting chance. However, the standout "Golden Age" (Of Montreal mixed into George Michael with a sprig of Prince—am I wrong?) most accurately distills what’s enjoyable about TVOTR, with dance party-ready beats and lyrics that read as smart as they sound. In their by-now familiar fashion, TV on the Radio take new-yet-familiar sounds, smack them upside the face, then invite a couple beats over. Complete awesomeness [...]

It seems that many otherwise staunch supporters of exciting musics are avoiding the FREE TV On The Radio show in KC tomorrow night because it's at the corporate-logo-flashing quagmire known as the KC Live Stage at the Power & Light District. I was somewhat on the fence myself -- mainly because the 1980s polyester man-sized-penis costume I bought probably isn't flame retardant, and don't they have like, giant Tiki torches all over that bitch? Anyway, watching this video just now, of "The Golden Age" off the new album, [...]

Ok, to start off, I have two corrections to make. First, in the post " Atlanta Album Preview: Nomen Novum " I had listed what I believed to be a possible tracklisting to Nomen Novum 's upcoming debut album, November , but I in fact gave you the possible tracklist Nomen Novum 's possible second album comprised of songs they are performing live already. The tracklist for November looks like this: intro / new coke permanent makeup I collect things/pow-pow little witches don't look up my face her body parallel eyes that's a [...]

'TV ON THE RADIO' Drops New Record! 'TV On The Radio' are by far one of the best bands to come out of Brooklyn, New York in the past decade. Their music is passionate, smart, hard hitting and at times lyrically touching. Politics, Love, War, poverty, hopes and fears are all touched upon in their records. Their music is a mix of atmospheric Rock and thought provoking Pop that contains a punk vibe that is deliciously hard to ignore. These boys are driven, motivated [...]

a few random things... over at whothehell.net , blink and you would have missed jerry's post on the digital millenium copyright act or, more accurately, about his blog's first-hand experience of a takedown notice from the RIAA - they were asked to take down a pnau remix. never mind that they were actually sent the file by pnau's label : My post is just one of the many examples how this law is being misused. It’s true that the mp3, being hosted with Dreamhost a US company, falls under US [...]

“I like pop music,” Kyp Malone said in a telephone interview. “I also like the sound of a dying refrigerator. I can listen to that for an hour and a half if I’m in the mood.” (Read this rest of this really excellent piece on TV on the Radio and their new record, "Dear Science" here .) TV on the Radio / Myspace are funny, wicked smart, and a serious force to be reckoned with live. I caught them last week at the Monolith Festival , and was [...]

TV on the Radio Dear Science (09.2008, DGC/Interscope) Verdict = Better than Return to Cookie Mountain TV on the Radio has emerged as one of the most distinctive voices on the modern indie music landscape (though they’re not technically indie anymore) and as such will always be walking a thin line in regards to follow up albums with fans ready to yell “sell out” at a moments notice. Fortunately, Dear Science , doesn’t fall into to that Modest Mousian trap, but there are still going to be a lot of [...]

There's a lot hitting the shelves tomorrow - we better get started early

I will always stand by a comment I made several years ago that Talking Heads' Remain In Light sits in the elite of all-time groundbreaking records and even now, almost a couple weeks shy of its release 28 years ago, it still sounds ahead of its time; relevant as rock music can ever be for the ages. So what's that have to do with TV On The Radio's new album Dear Science ? Good question. The first few times I listened to Dear Science I [...]

It seemed that whenever I was talking to a fan of TV on the Radio about Return to Cookie Mountain , they would always revert to "I liked (either) Young Liars (or) Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes better." I, on the other hand, felt that the album was amazing, truly one of the year's best - and certainly representative of some of the band's strongest material. But my reality wasn't influenced by countless listening sessions of the band's older material as were my friends', and as such I was comfortable with accepting the [...]

Ed ecco "Golden Age", il primo singolo tratto da "Dear scienze" dei Tv On The Radio, brano di cui vi abbiamo già parlato poco tempo fa . Il video invece è qualcosa di sospeso fra il trash anni 80, il lo-fi e l'immaginario fantasy, che ricorda molto il video di "Time to pretend" dei newyorkesi MGMT. Che nella grande mela stia prendendo piede questa stravagante estetica in bassa definizione? Prodotto dalla Drawpictures, già al lavoro con gente come Red Hot Chili Peppers , Natalie Imbruglia e molti altri, il video dovrebbe [...]
