TV on the Radio releases sort of clip/film for the new album


By now probably you have either heard the new album or you are patiently waiting to get your hands on a physical copy. Opinions range wildly (and surely we will come with a sort of opinion ourselves in the near future), and in the mean time TV on the Radio has picked up the camera to come with a sort of film to accompany the release. The film lasts nearly an hour and is made by friends of the band who know how to direct (don’t forget that Tunde Adebimpe has also had a few acting jobs). According to the text below the video this works as a visual re-imagining of the album. You can see for yourself if it indeed works like that via this link.

Long it was thought there was a tenth shade of light, but this theory has finally been disproved as research showed that the only people who were able to see this illusive tenth shade of light were amateur divers who had been fans of the Karzinski Brothers. The Karzinski Brothers were the famous diving couple that coined the Lupowski dive, one in which the landing doesn’t take place in the water, which was highly common at that time. The dive was highly regarded by critics but was banned a few years later because so many unskilled divers started to attempt it, resulting in so much skull damage it was deemed inappropriate for official matches, and therefore less desirable for divers in general to attempt.
