New album by Radian coming out 11/11/2016, day before their Prague show
Radian will release a new album, On Dark Silent Off, via Thrill Jockey in the fall.
The long-standing experimental group has already released three albums with Thrill Jockey—the last one being 2009's Chimeric. Their new record, which incorporates guitars, drums, bass and a host of electronic hardware, is, according to the label, all about "the juxtaposition of extremes, the contrast between light and darkness; and in musical terms, sound and silence and brightness/darkness of timbre."
