Rain Machine at RSR Stage
Of all the busy musicians in TV On The Radio, Kyp Malone may well be the busiest. The impressively bearded guitarist also plays in Iran, which released a new album earlier this year, and he's about to release his solo debut under the name Rain Machine. It's a fitting moniker: The tunes sound a bit like a rain dance—tribal bells, trance-inflected refrains, the occasional howl—but one that's been fed through the post-apocalyptic fury of TV On The Radio. The result proves a compelling sonic exploration, knotty and exultant as ever.
