MTV caught Tunde backstage at the Outside Lands Fesitval, and he had the following to say: </p><p>"We've been on tour for almost a year now, and towards the end of the year, you do end up getting things out during the show, subliminally, that you can't get out with someone on a bus. Because you can say something to someone on the bus, and then after you've let it out, you realize you've got six hours sitting across from that person. Like, 'Remember when I called you a d--- a while ago? That was just, uh, caffeine and all sorts of sleep depravation talking, and I really didn't mean it, and I hope you don't take it to heart, even though I can tell that you are because you're not talking to me.' It's basic cabin fever." </p><p>The full article can be found <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1620723/20090903/tv_on_the_radio.jhtml">here</a>. </p><p>It's very saddening, but at the very least we have Rain Machine (and a tour) to keep us topped up with TV on the Radio goodness for the time being! </p><p>Come over to the forum <a href="index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=23&func=view&catid=2&id=134">here</a> to discuss :) </p> Rain Machine US Tour 2009-08-27T11:45:16Z 2009-08-27T11:45:16Z /index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=75:rain-machine-us-tour&amp;catid=8:live&amp;Itemid=31 <p>Kyp has announced some tour dates all over the US!

Willie Isz starts the album with Shout Me Out, starting immediately with a pumping underground beat as Tunde<img src="images/Readsilence.jpg" border="0" alt="readsilence" title="Read Silence" width="207" height="207" align="right" /> opens the vocals, expanding with shimmering guitars. Rather than be hit with the usual onslaught of heavy riffing and uptempo snares as "Shout Me Out" is cried, we're treated to a disco-fuelled vocal breakdown of beatsliced and vocoded Adebimpe goodness. It's an interesting start, and certainly a good way to describe the rest of the EP. Stork and Owl opens with heartfelt piano chords and leads into...well not much really. It's effectively a long version of the original, with a few more effects, which is listenable, but not really remixing things up enough for my tastes. Thankfully, the EP closes with a standout Red Dress remix by the Glitch Mob. Techy industrial effects driven noise is the order of the day, with plenty more beatsliced Tunde vocals, and it brings strains of NIN's Year Zero Remixed to mind (never a bad thing). As a whole, the EP is great, but let down by a disappointing second track. Song selection is confusing, as there are plenty stronger tracks on Dear Science that have potential to sound incredible (DLZ, Halfway Home etc), but the artists do a stand up job of remixing the familiar and making it sound fresh, it's just a shame they couldn't get the whole of Dear Science remixed. Here's hoping they let the fans download the multitracks so that we can have a go.</p> <p>On the heels of the critically acclaimed Dear Science, Tv on the Radio have released Read Silence, a 3 track EP of remixed versions of Stork and Owl, Shout Me Out and Red Dress.
