Well it is about time. DCs Worldly duo Thievery Corporation returns with a new album entitled Radio Retaliation (due out September 23rd).  This will be their 5th studio album.  This album will have whole bunch of new collaborators including DC Go Go legend Chuck Brown!!!


"Apart from a few independent bastions, there is no musical or informational freedom on the US airwaves anymore. They’ve been bought up, consolidated and homogenized. Radio Retaliation is about an exodus of conscious people who are willing to acknowledge something is wrong with the ‘official version’ in news and culture," explains Hilton.

With Radio Retaliation Thievery Corporation raise the bar with a new cast of musical collaborators including; Nigeria’s afro-beat heir Femi Kuti, Brazilian star vocalist and guitarist Seu Jorge, Indian sitar virtuoso Anushka Shankar, Slovakian chanteuse and violinist Jana Andevska, and Washington DC’s own go-go originator Chuck Brown. Also returning are long time co-conspirators Sleepy Wonder, LouLou, Notch, Zee, and Verny Varela.
