It seems every week another album we think of as a relatively recent release celebrates a 20th anniversary, and makes us remember how time is a construct designed to make us feel old. Well, the devious plan isn't working, because the phenomenal Desperate Youth, Bloodthirsty Babes from TV On The Radio still makes us feel as young and addled as when we first heard it back in 2004. With five bonus tracks thrown in, including two completely unreleased tunes, this double LP reissue can't arrive soon enough. - Flying Out


Originally released in 2004, TV on the Radio's debut album features nine songs exploring themes like discordant living, misrepresentation, the nature of existence, life, the afterlife, love, and love "after hours." These tracks blend pop, rock, and art elements.

Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes picks up where their 2003 debut EP Young Liars left off, venturing into uncharted sonic territory. With catchy melodies, incredible production, intricate arrangements, and impressive vocal performances (including stunning a cappella moments), this album stands out as a solid body of work. The limited edition 20th anniversary release adds five bonus tracks, including two previously unreleased ones: "Dry Drunk Emperor" (a 2005 studio track) and "Final Fantasy" (a 2004 album outtake)
