The Go! Team - Live On Music: Response
Gleefully inventive dance/rock-hop mentalists The Go! Team play live on Music: Response and talked to Ian Camfield about chimps, kleptomania and biscuits. Hear the session and interview here.
A righteous blur of beats, horns, guitars, raps, snares and God-knows-what-else The Go! Team are the most downright FUN band on the planet right now. This is not an opinion, this a fact which can be proved scientifically. Cruelly missing out on the Mercury Music Prize, the 'Team's recent nomination nonetheless bought them sufficient attention that they've now had to re-issue their 'Thunder, Lightning, Strike!' debut with all-new legal samples. Fear not - it still rocks.
Bringing their trademark sense of fearless joy to Music: Response, The Go! Team talked about everything from their uniquely eclectic sound ("It's all carefully planned in a laboratory.") to their musical kleptomania and adopted chimp. [listen]
The Go! Team 'Bottle Rocket'
[Dial-Up]
[Broadband]
The current single's a tumbling melange of samples, horns and MC Ninja's death-defying vocal acrobatics. More fun than you ever thought possible.
The Go! Team 'Junior Kickstart'
[Dial-Up]
[Broadband]
Built around a sample from a certain TV theme, 'Junior Kickstart' builds, swoops and loops-the-loop like a particularly energetic rollercoaster.
The Go! Team 'We Just Won't Be Defeated'
[Dial-Up]
[Broadband]
Exclusive Online Track!
Perhaps the ultimate Go! Team track - symphonically triumphant and joyously celebratory - "We just won't be defeated/We'll fight until we drop/You can knock us down round after round/But we'll climb right back up."
