The Radio Dept.’s recent KEXP session captures the band behind 2010′s best album of the year in stripped-down, semi-acoustic mode — the immaculate cocoon of sound that surrounds the Swedish act on record is pulled away, leaving these songs feeling naked and emotionally charged. Let “Heaven’s on Fire” break your heart a bit.

1. Bus: mp3
2. Heaven’s On Fire: mp3
3. Sleeping In: mp3
4. The New Improved Hypocrisy: mp3

The band plays the El Rey on Feb. 16.
