Check Out: TVOTR’s “Golden Age”

By Alex Young on August 20th, 2008

After watering our mouths a few weeks ago with details of its brand new studio album, Dear Science (September 23), TV on the Radio is now offering the first few tastes. In addition to unveiling the comma free album art, the New York based outfit is now streaming the upcoming album’s first single, “Golden Age”, for all to hear on its myspace.

As Prefix Magazine points out, the electro-heavy track could be the first example of the an album wide In Rainbows influence. We’ll wait for the whole record to make a final evaluation, but there is definitely some Radiohead on Dear Science’s first single.
