I have been a big fan of TV On The Radio for many years. Blending musical styles that range from hip-hop and soul to rock and psychedelic jazz, the band has created a unique sound that has pushed musical boundaries and has always sounded fresh and exciting. This was perfectly illustrated on their amazing 2008 release, Dear Science. On their new release, Nine Types Of Light, the band has pulled back on their boundary pushing ways a bit and seem to be using self imposed restraints. I would be concerned about this, if the album was a miss, but it is not. It is another great album that shows that sometimes restraint is the missing ingredient.
Will Do
