Radiation City - Wash of Noise

From the album ‘Animals In The Median’ (2013) • Pay what you want I’ve got a proposition Why don’t we change positions? I’ll take your physical prowess You take this rabbit hat from me. While we’re in this position, Exchanging definitions I’d like a song to keep my memory intact. Am I high on fumes, Or do you feel it too? This wash of noise that’s calling me to you It’s everything, you’ll see We’ll make it out, There’s no doubt about it Enamored by modern electronic sounds but influenced by the chill tones of classic bossa records and the urgency and harmony of northern soul, Radiation City has codified seemingly disparate ideas into something equally space-aged and retro. Founded in 2009 amid the glow of one budding love affair, Radiation City quickly added a second couple to its ranks and blossomed into a full family. Debut LP The Hands That Take You quickly earned the band a reputation as one of Portland, Oregon’s most promising young acts, and the subsequent national tours—along with 2011’s Cool Nightmare EP—made good on that promise. But it was the quintet’s majestic, fully realized sophomore full-length, Animals in the Median, that secured Radiation City an audience far outside its native Portland, Oregon. iTunes: Spotify: Rdio: Amazon: Google:
