Description:
Nine Types of Light is the follow-up to the band's gorgeous, glorious 2008 release, Dear Science, which proved to be a kind of breakout release. It was named album of the year by Rolling Stone, Spin, Pitchfork, Entertainment Weekly, MTV and NPR; touring behind the album, the group sold out a year's worth of live shows across the world. This, however, did not prevent everyone from referring to TV On The Radio as a Brooklyn band.
On this album, the group takes an admittedly simpler approach to some of their songs, but TV On The Radio do not write traditional pop songs. Often, they change direction two or three times in one song - distorted guitars, sauntering and reverberating bass, a drum beat that is just the slightest bit off-center: these all give the impression that TVOTR tunes are just-barely containing an explosive amount of energy underneath itself and that tension is nothing less than exhilarating. "Will Do" starts out with wind chimes before giving away to that trademark buzz, with Tunde Adebimpe singing about the yearning for his ungovernable, unrequited love of another. "I think the songs on this album, to me, maybe sound simpler," Tunde says. "But it just might be that we have gotten better at what we do."
