TV on the Radio on the Internet

TVOTR... Some new up and coming stars of indie. These guys are fairly big in Americaland, and have been making serious waves amongst the indie people this side of the ocean too. If you haven't heard these guys and you were to ask someone to describe them, they'd probably give you a blank stare. Not because they're so indie that no one has heard of them, but rather because it's impossibe. Each song is completly on its own.



You can blanket them and just call them post-punk art rock, but they're much more subtle than that. Their songs go from upbeat poppy rock, so downbeat blues or gospel. It's got something for everyone really. Except people who like popular music, but no one will mind about that. And I think we can all agree they're very Alternative Electro Bus Funk.

They'll be playing Tripod in Dublin on the 16th... If you can get hold of tickets, I highly recommend going.
