I would see the band called TV On The Radio because they are fucking great.

In my opinion, Wolf Like Me isn't even their best song

NothingIncorporated:
Why is TV on The Radio a bad name for a band? It's a rather clever name if you ask me...

..for all you know it could connotate that by listening to television on the Radio allows you to create your own image of what's going on, which you can do in their songs (or at least I can)

Animal collective is way better than TVOTR. It's not even comprable.

monkandmovies13:
Funny, I would actually say there is more thought and originality in TVOR than in AC. I feel like Animal Collective...like...they make noises. With instruments and other random sounds they find interesting. And call it music. Not that I'm really stodgy and against all of that "experimental music" stuff, but I'm very wary of it because I don't subscribe to the pattern of thinking that anything crazy or not done before is neccessarily good or worthwhile. It has to be complex and show skill in some way, and I feel like every Animal Collective song and album sounds exactly the same. Whatever, maybe I'm just not listening hard enough.

Wait, this is a TVOR thread. Yeah, I guess I can see why people like them, but they hurt my ears. I am not that into static-y, noisy indie rock that is so layered and thick like TVOR's music. It just puts me in a weird mood, and is really hard to explain why it makes me feel like it does. But it's not a good feeling.

I will say that I think TVOR are more technically musically talented that Animal Collective.
