New York legends TV On The Radio are regarded in almost mythical terms for their influence on the 2000s alternative scene. Cooler than The Strokes, more adventurous than LCD Soundsystem, they continued a tradition of underground indie arthouse music, like some combination of all the great CBGBs bands: Television, Bad Brains, Patti Smith, Talking Heads, Blondie.
The band have caused much excitement as they’re back for UK shows this year but now their co-founder and principal songwriter Tunde Adebimpe is releasing his debut solo album. Where does this fit in?
