I secretly dance around the living room to them. :oops:
I only know a handful of their songs. Love them live yet feel they're sound sort of immature. (Mind you, they DO have, what? five drummers and seven guitar players?) Maybe that's why they sound pretty good live.

I like both of the albums I have by them. Never seen them live, but i'm sure they'd be pretty entertaining.

i like the power is on (or the power is out, or whatever it's called). sounds like cheerleaders on crack.

I discovered two great songs at a club in London a couple years ago: The Go Team's Huddle Formation and Peter Bjorn and John's Young Folks. As soon as arrived in the states, I bought "Thunder Lightning", but "Writers Block" wasn't released until 6 months later.

Yeah, they have some pretty cool and catchy shit. I recently bought their last album...the song "Wrath Of Marcie" is fucking money.


I'm going to try to catch them at Lollapalooza this year.

I have an album of theirs that my to-be-brother-in-law burned me a copy of, but I've only given it a half-hearted listen or two. I'll be sure to give it a chance next chance I get.

Probably my favorite band

Ian Parton is one of the most brilliant guys writing music today, imo.

Their last album is criminally underrated, and a nice progression from thunder, lightning, strike. I saw them last October in NY, and it was a fantastic show. I highly recommend going to see them if anyone has the chance.

Theres another go! team thread floating around here somewhere, but they deserve more than one.

Heres a couple of great, great b-sides for anyone who hasn't heard them.

Ooops. Sorry, I didn't realise there was already a thread about them.

I'd definitely go and see them live if I had the chance. I just wonder if the venue would be full of kids because of that pop sound they have going on. :)

I used to work for the NTSB. I find it amusing that there's a band that took its name from the group of investigators that are initially sent to crash sites. :roll:

Yeah, not sure what it is about these guys but I always find myself enjoying their songs when I hear them.
