BAM!
That’s basically the encapsulated effect of The GO! Team. No, not reminscent of Emeril Lagasse, this won’t turn into a Food Network Blog.
Anyway, the condensed energy of this band fronted by MC Lisa Lee, ( or Ninja sometimes), explodes in your ear drums and uncomfortably forces you into a good time, even if you want one or not. By mixing 60’s groove, – think Theme song to Hawaii- 5-O- early rap influence and a modern indie twist. That’s basically what they use to show “the world knows what we’re talking about.”
“Grip Like A Vice” – punches you in the throat with teenage hyperactivity and gives you an impression that will leave your lobes tingling for more. I also wonder if the name of the song is a Vag reference, she does say it’s a women’s world…. just sayin’
” My World” – basically sounds like an after-school special ending credits. In a very peaceful backdrop, This actually reminds me of the montages used on The Wonder Years. (Winnie! You should have ended up with Kevin!) This brings in that truly nostalgic effect, mixed in with a Jon Brion circa Eternal Sunshine sounding theme.
Their older cd “Thunder, Lightning, Strike ” is full of these nostalgia laden, groove-based samples which turn into classics. Their new cd is all of their own recordings, with more of a ferocity behind it. Tough to decide a fav, but so far it goes to Grip.
But definitely check out Ladyflash from their old one.
Lisa Lee throughout all of this reminds you of that girl you were attracted to that had no problem kicking little boys in the shins, and then apologizing with that cutesy, foot-pivoted-into-the-ground innocent smile.
Katie, wherever you are, you’re still a whore.
Who kicks someone in the shins? It was the second grade , but I know since then karma has came back since then and struck you with some form of an std.
Anyway, highly recommend anyone that just wants to kick out the jams of the old-school playground days, and have a sick soundtrack while double-dutching your hearts out .
Trying to figure out when the hell to jump in,
Jordan.
