Jagged thunder aplenty, as this band tears through a set of impressively constructed symphonies of hostility. If you like the sort of music that makes you headbang, give this a listen but make a chiropractor appointment first.
An unusual release blending all manner of genres from the last 50 years, which ends up sounding like a very approachable prog rock. Creative arrangements and surprising turns of style keep this an engaging listen.
There is a spectacular video for one of the songs on here, and there will be more, and by now the band's reputation rests on these videos, but I suggest you give this a listen to hear exactly how OK GO have mastered the art of symphonic power pop.
The first thing to know is that it's pronounced "male." The important thing to know is that the Irish trio make the sort of rickety racket with metronomic drums, aggressive bass, spiky guitar, and disaffected vocals that immediately gets my attention
It's not dub in the traditional sense, but it does have many of the same trance-inducing elements, making it well-suited for a long workday or a powerful wind-down. Bonus: Instrumental versions and a remix.
