Thievery Corporation are set to release their 5th studio album entitled Radio Retaliation on September 23rd on ESL Music.
The album was recorded in the band’s hometown of Washington DC and the vibe is decidedly political which is no surprise given the high profile presidential campaign happening this year. A pre-release will be available on Itunes on September 9th which will feature an exclusive non album track entitled “Philosopher’s Stone” available for the two weeks leading up to the CD hitting retail outlets.
“Radio Retaliation is definitely a more overt political statement,” says Garza “There’s no excuse for not speaking out at this point, with the suspension of habeas corpus, outsourced torture, illegal wars of aggression, fuel, food, and economic crises. It’s hard to close your eyes and sleep while the world is burning around you. If you are an artist, this is the most essential time to speak up.”
Select live U.S. and European dates in the fall.
