Promo Promo: Nine Types of Light - The Movie
TV On The Radio's new album might not be the immediate attention-grabber that Dear Science was, but it's a grower. In support of the album, TVOTR's Tunde Adebimpe has directed an album-length promo, with a little help from his friends.
Warning: there's an 80's video-art vibe to the opening.
Watch at YouTube. Trailer version below.

Read on TwitterDischord on Spotify
Attention skate-punkers. Ever wondered what that obscure Fugazi track on the 20 Years of Dischord compilation is? (It's good!) Or whether the second Evens album was any better than the first? (No!) Dischord now have their extensive catalogue on Spotify, giving you easy access to Fugazi, Minor Threat, French Toast, Dag Nasty and dozens of others ...so you can listen for yourself.
Some personal recommendations: Egg Hunt and Embrace (both awesome post-Minor Threat, pre-Fugazi Ian Mackaye bands)

Despite the near death metal opening, album 7 veers more towards classic 70s rock.
