Radio Dept have a new album coming out

By tuesday

If this is news to you, then get excited. If it isn’t then continue your wave of excitement. Radio Dept are a good band. Some people totally <3 them, I wouldn’t say I am a devotee or anything, but they are definitely solid. In fact, that second album they released was orss. I liked it more than the first one. Anyway, watch out for the third one.

The press release ends with: “Now, the 20th of January 2010, as we’re sitting here with “Clinging to a scheme” in our hands we’ve waited four long years for this new album to materialize. And we only need a simple press on Play and to know it’s been worth every second. The band has combined the most unequalled components from their previous albums “Lesser matters” and “Pet grief” with soul guitars, P-funk, glittering, distorted synthesizers, cut/paste- beats, 70’s futuristic orchestra sounds and sounds you don’t know what they are. Things you’ve never heard before. “Clinging to a scheme” is way beyond pleasing – it’s absolutely breathtaking. -”

Which I guess is all true of the album, but the bottom line is if you liked Radio Dept before, this will just strengthen your liking. In terms of ‘getting into the band’ then track down a copy and go for it, because when I played it I was like “Yeah.” In a really accomplished way, as I had anything to do with anything. I can’t really describe it any further since my room mate is listening to Mos Def+NateDogg-Oh No, and it is kind of cutting my train of thought, the new songs are “said to be influenced by minimalistic post-punk, krautrock, repetitive “motorik” beat and ambient noise.”

This is one of the best releases that will come out of Sweden this year.
