In a recent interview with SPIN, TV on the Radio announced the band has parted ways with Interscope and have already recorded new material with a single slated later this year on new label, Federal Prism.

This Saturday, April 27th, TVOTR will close out New York’s Crossing Brooklyn Ferry festival and headline the ATP Festival’s first weekend in May.
