Just got this album and it is just as phenomenal as the last one. TV on the Radio and Dave Sitek have done it again. While the album itself is epic, what is even more astounding is the visual representation of this movie/video that comes with the album. Basically, a movie with a video for every song in story format. Beautifully put together and it complements the music well, like a fine wine. Several bands have attempted this feat lately. The Decemberists, White Lies and Noah and the Whale to name a few. To me, if it is well done, it makes for a better album experience and encourages consumers to engage the whole album as it is meant to be listened to, rather than just consume individual songs. It is only an hour long and worth watching for the artistic import, if for nothing else, plus you get to listen to some killer tunes.
