LATVIAN RADIO's own brand of lyrically charged indie-power-pop has been a mainstay on college radio since it's first album 'Happiness Above A Hardwood Floor' in 2006. Their second release 'Seven Layers Of Self Defense' spent five straight weeks on the CMJ top 200 charts. Absolute Power Pop had it on their year end list for best albums of 2009. Their brand new release 'Kill The Static' picks up where the first two critically acclaimed records left off while adding layers of lyrically charged and introspective songwriting backed by sonically dense and impossibly catchy instrumentation. The press has linked Latvian Radio to Elvis Costello & The Attractions, The Replacements, Brendan Benson, early REM, Big Star and The Decemberists.
