TV on the Radio: Dear Science Album
Hands down, best new music out over the last two weeks. T.V.O.T.R. is a Brooklyn band-- who are offering us something a little more challenging, all the while keeping the energy up enough to dance. This video is for the single "Dancing Choose". This album has been my soundtrack for daily workouts this week.
From wiki--
