Radio Four
Post-punky spikey and ultimately funky
The delectable sounds of New York’s proudest proponents of the city’s now trademarked dance-punk sound - Radio 4. As a quintet they forge music possessing a myriad of influences and sounds. They wear their post-punky spikey and ultimately funky guitars of Gang Of Four and The Clash on their sleeves along with the pulsating house grooves of New York’s clubs.
With shimmering electronics from keyboardist Gerard and pounding dance percussion from the eccentric P.J. added to the core trio of bass, drums and guitar, Radio 4 have distilled several distinct genres into one accessible sound. It is their love of reggae however that marks them out as different to their city peers such as The Rapture,!!! and Interpol.
