TV on the Radio have been one of the best, most consistent bands of the last decade, and new release Nine Types of Light continues their run of excellent albums. The band seem to have grown in confidence, often allowing the songs to build at a slower rate than on previous albums. There also seems to be more room for love on this one where there was none on previous releases. This, along with the up-tempo numbers here, illustrates the band’s comfort with their craft.
TV on the Radio are never going to be as big as U2, but based on this evidence they deserve to be.
