The Go! Team - Proof of Youth

Brighton's six-piece blend of hip hop, indie rock and dance anthems The Go! Team are set to release their second studio album, Proof of Youth.

Proof of Youth features guest appearances including Bonde do Role's Marina Ribatski, Solex, Double Dutch Divas and Public Enemy's Chuck D.

Go! Team is pretty new to me, so here's a description of how they sound like by the experts....

"Go! Team play a fast and furious mix of 60s girl groups, 70s car chase TV themes, 80s lady MCs, and 90s guitar squalor. Their 2005 debut, Thunder, Lightning, Strike was critically lauded for its cheerleader anthems, syrupy string samples, and mad-as-a-hatter horn arrangements. This release bombs melodies into the stone age with its needle-in-the-red anti-production approach. It lurches from bubblegum pop to white noise in a heartbeat."
