top 50 records of 2011- 30. TV on the Radio - Nine Types of Light

30. TV ON THE RADIO -NINE TYPES OF LIGHT

New York City's TV on the radio are a sure-fire guarentee of producing quality output. This is their poppiest, loviest and loveliest effort so far.

The band sounds happy in love and have a cheerful mentality. It's a summer-centric listen and after their masterpiece "Dear Science" brought the funk and was super-bold, this fourth album is a lot more centered.

It's a pleasant break from a band that usually swerves around with styles. I feel they've certainly not mellowed out for good, but instead want to just produce an album of sweet nectar and this is it. Their milk and honey.
