TCV is the third and final studio album by alternative rock band The Click Five. It was released in Asia on November 16, 2010, and was released in Europe the following year.

Background

The band released their second studio album, Modern Minds and Pastimes on June 26, 2007, and despite high expectations, the album only sold 50,000 copies and reached number 136 on the Billboard 200. As a result the group was dropped by their record label, Atlantic. According to producer Mike Denneen said, "Atlantic was unwilling to let them become a 'real' band, which is what the guys wanted. Now they're calling the shots and having the opportunity to do what most bands do at the beginning: play and write songs and develop." Guitarist Joe Guese said that "this is a chance to reintroduce ourselves" after they were dropped by the label. Following a tour in support of Modern Minds and Pastimes, they began recording their third studio album with Denneen. It was recorded in a span of eight days at Q Division Studios. This is the second album to feature Kyle Patrick who stated, "For me it was a different thing because I wasn't in the band for that first record . So it's just a little bit harder for me to understand where the other guys were coming from and making that first record because I wasn't there. But I appreciate that record very much, and I feel there's elements of that came out of the other four guys. So I feel it came out more in this recent release just because we were trying to get back to our roots and is a little bit heightened on this record. It just felt more of a unified effort."

Release

The album's lead single, "I Quit! I Quit! I Quit!" was released for digital download in April 2009, and was later released as a vinyl format. The second single, "The Way It Goes" was released for radio airplay in Singapore on August 6, 2010. "Don't Let Me Go" was released as the third and final single on November 16, the same day as the album's release. The music video for the single was released on April 15, 2011, in partnership with MTV EXIT to bring awareness about human trafficking. In support of the album's release, the group embarked on their headlining Way Back to You tour in May 2011.

Melodic

Kaj Roth of Melodic gave the album a positive review stating, "Former frontman Eric Dill was replaced by Kyle Patrick on the 2nd album and he did a fine job but the songs didn't match the extremely well done first album... but I must say this album is filled with plenty of ear candy that I want to return to over and over again."
