TV on the Radio’s second trek through San Diego in support of Nine Types of Light in the calendar year was a much tighter affair than May’s outing at 4th & B. Though the soundman once again had trouble with Tunde Adebimpe’s vocals bleeding into the overall mix, the Greek theater setting of Open Air was far more suited to the Brooklynites’ expansive art rock compositions.

As is now standard operating procedure, TV on the Radio are giving a preview of their fifth album, Nine Types of Light, online a week before the official release on April 12. You can stream the full album on Rhapsody, although you will have to sign up for a free trial membership (life is soooooo hard).

File under hip-hop we actually care about, pt 2 (still not talking about the Grammys edition). Our friends over at Self-Titled Mag scored themselves the exclusive stream of Anti-Pop verbal conflabulator Beans‘ new album, End It All. The record drops tomorrow on Anticon, and features production by Four Tet, Nobody, Bumps (of Tortoise), Tobacco, and more. We’ve already heard TV on the Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe supplying vocals on first single, “Mellow You Out.”

The one upside of TV on the Radio’s hiatus is that we’ve been able to hear different sides of all TVotR memebers in various projects over the past few years. We’re not holding our breath to hear Dave Sitek’s work with Janes Addiction, but Tunde Adebimpe joining with Antipop Consirtium vet Beans on his latest solo album is something worth getting excited about.
“Mellow You Out” is the second song we’ve heard off of End It All, due for release February 15 via Anticon. Check out the first selection, “Daethsweater” here.
