CRITIC’S PICK:
Fri., Sep. 19
TV On The Radio, Center Stage Theater — After two decades of morphing and mutating, this New York lo-fi alchemy returns to bless Atlanta with its burned-out soulexpressions. They’re no longer bound by genre: they stretch indie rock, soul, and electronics until the seams rip, then sew them back by instinct. One minute you’re pulled into a groove that sounds like Prince underwater, the next you’re blasted with guitar noise sharp enough to cut glass. Hearing “Wolf Like Me” or anything off Return to Cookie Mountain in that room will feel like the last transmission before the world goes sideways. It’s a late-night blessing, not a show. The band’s sound will hum in your chest like static electricity with teeth. You’ll walk out altered, with every hair on your arm raised like an antenna. Communion is the only word. — Matthew Warhol
From the venue:
If you think about how hard it is to maintain any creative musical pursuit over time, to evolve a sound across several albums and many years, to stay fresh and engaged along the way, to aim for something beyond yourself and still have plenty to say…well, then, TV On The Radio’s 23-year run is nothing short of a miracle. Experimentation, curiosity and intention are the chromosomes that comprise the band’s DNA and, along with a little alchemy, it’s resulted in a more-than-two-decade run as one of America’s most original bands. Which is all to say that to have TV On The Radio present in the year of our lord 2024 – 20 years after their debut album, a decade since their last – is an absolute blessing.
Since its inception, TV On The Radio has always been hard to categorize. But that has been by design. To be beyond contextualization, a band of contradiction: their music sounds both boundless and intimate, wandering and purposeful, songs illustrating courage and fear at once. That tension is at the heart of who they are, even as they continued to morph and evolve their sound through five albums.
