A so-called alternative rock band, The Radio Dept. is above all a flagship of
rock close to inspired, atmospheric pop. Formed in 1995, The Radio Dept.
released the acclaimed Lesser Matters in 2003. Pet Grief didn't fare quite as
well in 2006, with The Radio Dept. receiving insufficient support and going
unnoticed. Far from giving up, The Radio Dept. once again released a luminous
album with Clinging to a Scheme in 2010.
