The Go! Team

UK band THE GO! TEAM have unleashed a new song from their forthcoming third album 'Rolling Blackouts'. The song is entitled 'T.O.R.N.A.D.O.' and has been confirmed as Track One on the new album, which is due to be released on January 31st in the UK and February 1st in the 'States.

In an interview with Pitchfork, frontman Ian Parton talked about new song 'T.O.R.N.A.D.O.': "It's a bit more direct than the usual Go! Team song. It's like a seesaw of stabs, basically. It's call-and-response, sort of brassed out. It's like The Taking of Pelham One Two Three, if you know the soundtrack to that. It's pretty tough, a bit more kind of straightforward than the usual Go! Team song. I'm not normally happy unless I have like 10 things going on, but this one was refreshingly stripped back and tough. I think the production's a bit weightier than previous Go! Team output."

In the same interview, Parton confirmed that the 'Rolling Blackouts' album features guest appearances from Dominique Young Unique, Satomi Matsuzaki from Deerhoof, and Bethany Cosentino of Best Coast.
