I'm sure there are lots of adverts just waiting to give these twat songs the perfect home, if they haven't already. The Go! Team is not a band, even. It's one man from Brighton in his thirties surrounded by a bunch of ready-retro fucks filling up the rest of the stage, with a whore singer who seems so fresh out of stage school her fake smile hasn't turned bitter at the corners yet. I hate everything this non-band stands for, if it stands for anything at all.
The Go! Team can Go! fuck themselves.
Go suck Paul McCartney's dick.
I am guessing you haven't seen these cunts live in concert. Do that and get back to me. If you're not too busy lubing up your dog's tight little ass.

"Ladyflash" is catchier than Ebola and about as genuinely happy as an episode of Sesame Street.
I've never heard anything else of theirs and I'm not sure I want to, because "Ladyflash" is just that good.
For that alone, not crap.

Crap. I thought they weren't too objectionable until I saw them live. Fuck did they suck.

Personally, i don't know why they bother with playing live. It's patently obvious that their albums are a complete studio creation. They could just camp out in the studio and churn this shit out at regular intervals and i'd gobble it up like candy. Which is basically what it is, anyway. But hey, i like candy.

When i saw them at that big outdoor fest in Twin Lakes last year, they were entertaining enough, but they were pretty lacking in energy. My assumption was that they were too slaved to the piles and piles of sequences to really let it hang out and
rock. Also, it's a personal view of mine, but there's a line somewhere with sequenced tracks where it stops enhancing the live show and instead hinders it greatly, and i thought they crossed the line the one time i saw 'em.

funny I thought the exact oppisite when I saw them, I was suprised how much of it was live, there were a few sloppy mess ups and that added to the charm of it...

Ha ha you 'serious rock' retards.
The Go! Team are the best. Ever!!! Yeah!!!!
OK they have loads of backing tracks for playing live but there's no secret about it - so what?
It seemed like a big achievement that the first record ever got as far as any kind of live show. And now there's another one, and they can do it on stage as well.
Great big NC

The Go! Team man Ian Parton:
"I think music should be kept special, and I don't think selling it for a commercial is a good way to do that."
The Go! Team song "Huddle Formation" is in a Honda Civic TV ad.
The Go! Team man Ian Parton, later:
"Basically this ad was a concession so that there would be someone to clear the samples. Hypocritical I know but its a tricky thing to navigate through when you make sample based music. It's a minefield."
Ian Parton of The Go! Team! Go! Embrace your destiny!
