Yes! EP.11 has arrived!

We're talking all things Interpol, the band, not the bureau!

Cinematic, bold, expansive and moody, their sound was one of the most recognisable to come out of the New York scene of the 00s.

We're taking a look at their work of the noughties from Turn On The Bright Lights to Our Love To Admire. We look at their formation, struggles to get a record deal, and what they mean to us as a band that shaped our lives.

But that's not all, there's plenty of non Interpol chat along the way and of course there's another epic battle in the AI V Artist lyric game!

We've also got our awesome 15 track playlist of our favourite tracks from their 3 albums of the 00s!

Recorded January 2026.

Since forming in 2001, TV On The Radio have been pushing the boundaries of music.

Original members Dave Sitek and Tunde Adebimpe were inspired by Radiohead and released their first demo album, Ok Calculator, in 2002. Two years later and with the addition of Kyp Malone, TVOTR released the critically acclaimed Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes, an album so full of creativity, experiment and raw emotion that it was hard not to ignore.

The band have released 5 studio albums to date and in this episode we’re taking a look at all of them and the new york scene of the noughties. Gareth and James test their knowledge in the AI v Artist lyric game and as ever we have a 15 track playlist of our favourite TVOTR cuts!

This episode was recorded in January 2026.

Enjoy. ✌️

As well as chat on the band and their albums we talk beer, Buddhism, green bees, all the goths, bad 80's sitcoms, Top of The Pops, Edgar Wright, Phil completely screws up and of course there's another epic battle in the AI V Artist lyric game!

We've also got our awesome 15 track playlist of our favourite cuts from TEMBD!
