Bleep

TV On The Radio offer a salvo to fans waiting for the Brooklyn art rockers' sixth album with the single 'Mercy'. Released on Dave Sitek's own Federal Prism label, the A-side is a blistering barrage of energy. Tunde Adebimpe's pained vocals scream of the burn in his soul, while the band's unrelenting rhythms match his nervous anguish. 'Million Miles' is a more relaxed affair, a steady swing that hints at closing time vibes, though with lyrics imploring "don't you let love break your heart" it's just as emotive.
