OK Go is Rock and Roll the way it should be: brimming
with guitars, disco-era beats, and vocals that sound like a hybrid of
the Beatles, Electric Frankenstein and the Clash. Since the release of
their debut they have come to symbolize, for many, the potential for
modern rockers to capture the spirit of old school rock without
sacrificing their integrity or sounding like a tribute band.
OK Go has made a bigger splash than most rock bands; they have been
featured on "This American Life," and have become one of the most
popular live acts in the national circuit. Their songs capture that
elusive state between tight compositions and utter musical chaos where
real rock music has made its deepest mark. Ok Go is at once rough and
harmonious, sleazy and classy, and they deserve a spot in every serious
rock fan's music collection.
