TV on the Radio - Will Do

TV on the Radio - Will Do by 1077 The End

The vibe you get from "Will Do", the first released track from TV on the Radio's forthcoming LP, is that these guys know what they're doing. They've been in the game for almost ten years now, and coming off the release of two groundbreaking indie rock releases, TV on the Radio are potentially at their peak. But there's nothing to worry about in "Will Do". It's great to hear the band finally playing new material, especially with a song good enough to stand next to their impressive discography. "Will Do" appeases to the old and new TV on the Radio fans; It's got a lot of soul, hard-hitting electronic drums, and a chilled-out atmosphere. The usual distorted guitar is minimal, and the glittering samples are a great match with the almost irresistible bass line. On a whole, "Will Do" introduces a new style from the experimental Brooklyn outfit, and I don't think I can complain.

4/5
