Holy Crap! Things looks
as if they are going to get crazy next week on Lost and I can't wait
to see what the writers are going to leave us pondering until 2008.
Anyway, let's talk about the release that you know deep down is one that you
are most looking forward to later this year: The Go! Team's currently
untitled LP that is due out in September. The first single, which I
have below, popped up on the net earlier this week and I almost put it up
yesterday, but I wanted to share the EP. Plus, I kind of needed a
moment to let the track sink in. I don't know why, but the avant garde
pop group never gets me on the first listen. I think it may be due to
the fact that the guilty pleasure part of my brain is freaking out with
excitement and slowing down the common sense part. Enjoy.
:The Go Team - Grip Like A Vice:
"Do you want to rock the house and turn this mother out?" Nothing has
changed here, the band is still channeling an overwhelming amount of
positive energy that is obviously meant to get the asses shaking. So
why did it take me a moment to love it? Well, I think they still have
various times when they feel a little too much like a novelty, and even
though they make it work like nobody's business, part of me would like to
see them making more of an effort to slowly move away from it. Still,
does it get more fun than this?
If you love all
of those bizarre music videos from the 80s then you are in
for a treat with what has been created around a song from
the band's last album, Thunder, Lightning, Strike,
titled Ladyflash. I highly recommend that you
watch this thing at least 3 times.
