Radiation City will release their sophomore studio album Animals In The Median, May 21, 2013 via Tender Loving Empire. Effortlessly bending genres, the quintet will kick off a national spring US tour this month. The band has also revealed a new live “Foreign Bodies” video shot by Into the Woods under the awe-inspiring span of the Astoria–Megler Bridge.  it’s the third in a series of videos celebrating Portland-based Fort George Brewery’s Tender Loving Empire Northwest Pale Ale.

From their use of modern electronic sounds and the restraint of classic bossa records, to the urgency and harmony of northern soul, Radiation City has codified seemingly disparate ideas into a sound and ethos that is at once refreshing and classic. The band has shared stages with Pickwick, Caveman, YACHT, The Walkmen, Unknown Mortal Orchestra.
