No, I meant TV On The Radio is that newer band, as opposed to, say, The Strokes and The White Stripes that co-opt an older sound (garage rock) for better or worse.

TVOTR sounds like NOTHING else out there and that's really exciting.

You think this sounds like older bands?? Oh man. I would disagree.

Isn't it about time that there was a new(er) band to get excited about that didn't sound like someone else's older band?

Interesting approach Taylor, and good point about the most adventurous bands being the hardest ones to write about.

I really like this album. Frankly, I wasn't a huge fan of their last one. Too dense, too proggy for me. I did recognize their forward-thinking spirit though. This one seems more accessible, and most important, funkier.
