TV On the Radio

TV On the Radio is a very unique band in the sense that they incorporate free jazz, a cappella/doo-wop, trip-hop and electro into their music. Hailing from Brooklyn, they have taken themselves on quite a journey since their founding in 2001. On their new album, "Return To Cookie Mountain", they find themselves scaling their own personal mountains to heights that they never seemed to have envisioned for themselves. "Wolf Like Me" is a perfect example of a perfect blend of earth laden lyrics and heaven sent noise. At on point in the song he sings, "My mind has changed, my body's frame but god i like it." And so do I! When I put this album on my body sits forward and strains to understand what I am hearing. One bonus is that they can count David Bowie as one of their biggest fans. He contributed vocals to "Province", the third track on the album. Now if that isn't a seal of approval then I don't know what is!
