Originally released in 2004, TV on the Radio’s debut album is nine songs about (in no particular order) — discordant living, misrepresentation, how nothing nothing can be, life, afterlife, love and love “after hours.” These are pop songs. These are rock songs. These are art songs.
Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes began right where TVOTR’s 2003 debut EP Young Liars left off, propelled into uncharted sonic territory. Undeniably catchy songs with incredible production, arrangements, champion crooning (including stunning a cappella performances) and a host of extras that makes this a seriously solid album.
This 20th anniversary edition adds 5 bonus tracks to the album, including two previously unreleased (neither in physical format nor on digital service providers) tracks - "Dry Drunk Emperor" (2005 studio track) and "Final Fantasy" (2004 album outtake).
Seriously, they are next to greatness. - David Cross
