Restiform Bodies - TV Loves You Back - Anticon - 2008

Finally got to the new Restiform Bodies full-length TV Loves You Back and I'm pleasantly surprised to enjoy it. To borrow a baseball term, Tv Loves You Back is effectively wild: all over the place, but still close enough to the strike zone to draw some wild cuts. It's breakcore & grime, chopped and stewed with pop hooks and a barrage of hip-hop. There's a ton of tracks I'd like to post off the album, but I'll just post a couple that are already available on the web.

A Pimp-like God has college radio anthem written all over it, straddling deliberate verse with the most danceable refrain on the album. It's followed up with Consumer Culture Wave a jam that answers the question of what Hot Chip would sound like if they were glitched up in dub. I highly reccommend the rest of this album... if you like it, buy it!
