Swedish pop/electronic duo The Radio Dept. have been polishing their latest LP "Running Out Of Love" for 6 years, and the result is a hypnotizing ode to the current state of affairs in their home country. Their latest single "We Got Game" speaks of "laser beams and swat teams," yet the track's tone is quite buoyant.

Despite the somber nature of the politically charged content, "We Got Game" is both a nod to old school dance music and the pop-producing chops of The Radio Dept.'s Johan Duncanson and Martin Carlberg.
"Running Out Of Love" is due out October 21 on Labrador Records.
