Grip Like A Video

The Go! Team's new single "Grip Like A Vice" has definitely been one of my go-to dance anthems of the past few weeks. The other is The Sounds' "Tony The Beat," which I know is a little old, but put it on and try not to dance. I dare you.

Anyway, listening to "Grip Like A Vice," I totally imagined the video to be all bright colors and people dancing and going crazy. But The Go! Team decided to get a little more political on us: going black & white, highlighting phrases like "the people's choice," "what you gonna do" and "look out," featuring sign language, bags over the guitarists' heads, map imagery and cop cars.

But rest assured, because there are still people dancing.

The Go! Team recently signed to Sub Pop. Their sophomore album Proof Of Youth will be out on September 11th.
