The Go! Team

Remember this name because it will keep popping up in all those end-of-year top-ten lists that are about to start pouring in just a couple of weeks. Thunder, Lightning, Strike is a fantastic debut packed with childish energy, tons of fun, and irresistible pop melodies. Their new release 'Ladyflash' is a clear candidate for best single of 2004 (yes, it is 'Take Me Out', 'Dry Your Eyes' or 'Float On' caliber): it pretty much picks up where Junior Senior's 'Move Your Feet' and The Avalanches 'Since I Left You' left off, and it's got more hooks and samplings than those two records put together.
Just let your hair down and dance...
