TV On The Radio have unveiled the studio version of new track ‘Mercy‘, which is all set to be released through Dave Sitek‘s Federal Prism label.
The song was premiered live during the TV On The Radio-curated leg of the ATP Festival at Pontin’s Camber Sands Holiday Park back in May, and is a precursor to the follow-up to 2011’s ‘Nine Types Of Light‘ – expected this year.
“I’m not sure what’s gonna be out when, but there’s new stuff coming,” frontman Tunde Adebimpe has previously said of the group’s future plans. “We’re sort of collecting material for a record, but right now we’re only thinking in terms of songs, smaller things we can put out regularly until an album seems possible. Which I love.”
“It’s not that you’re less precious about the process, but I like coming in and saying, ‘Let’s make a couple songs’, not feeling any sort of pressure to lock ourselves in a room.”
