小简介

The Go! Team是从英国Brighton发迹的六人编制大阵仗欢乐跳舞乐队，有人形容他们的音乐是Sonic Youth遇上Jackson 5，这个比喻翻译成地球文字应该是: 喧嚣吵杂的硬蕊精神遇上兴高采烈的综艺喜感。刚出道的The Go! Team常被拿来和其它欢乐队伍如The Avalanches或RJD2相较，04年尾发行的首张专辑Thunder, Lightning, Strike在英美两地同时获得极热烈的回响。

The Go! Team带来的音乐难以被简单归类但却极具大众缘。六人乐队The Go! Team来自英国布雷顿，成员为三男三女，其中两位女子是鼓手（其中一个是东方人），第三位就是主唱Ninja（忍者）。乐队极力编织出一种欢快的、吵闹的、犹如拉拉队一般的小段子，有人形容他们的风格是“喧嚣吵闹的硬核精神遇上兴高采烈的综艺喜剧感”。在现场演出时乐队经常将观众分成男女两边，当Ninja在台上活蹦乱跳地点到男观众这边时，男观众就喊出“Go!Go!…”，点到女观众，女观众则喊“Team!Team!…”，台上台下欢腾一片。但你若认为他们是那种极力讨好大众审美的乐队那就大错特错，乐队灵魂人物吉他手伊恩伯顿说：“他们以为我们是为了商业用途才制造了这种快乐的氛围，我很失望，我们已经很努力地远离那些愚蠢的玩艺儿了。”实际上The Go! Team除了漂亮的音乐外表根本就是偏离主流的独立音乐。整体上的音乐是非氛围的，气质上更是具有一种新形态下的朋克的味道，相当复杂精彩。

The Go! Team is a six-piece group from Brighton, England, whose sound is a stunning blend of indie rock guitars, police show themes, hip-hop beats, and schoolyard chants built on samples and then augmented by live instrumentation. The founder and leader of the team is Ian Parton, who provides guitar and sculpts their sound. The rest of the group includes Sam Dook on guitar, banjo, and drums, Chi "Ky" Fukami Taylor on drums, Jaime Bell on bass, Ninja on vocals, and Kaori Tsuchida on drums, guitar, keyboards, and melodica. Their first release, 2000's Get It Together, was primarily a solo effort by Parton that gained support from John Peel and others, but legal problems prevented a timely follow up. By the time of 2003's Junior Kickstart single, the group had been assembled (and included Silke Steidinger, who was left in fall of 2005) and signed to Memphis Industries. Thunder, Lightning, Strike was released in 2004 and quickly became a sensation in the U.K., where it was nominated for the Mercury Prize, and in the U.S. where the band became an MP3 blog darling. A bidding war ensued in the U.S., with Columbia winning, but before the album could gain release, many of the samples had to be replaced (which didn't affect the quality of the record at all). The group followed up the album with two U.K. singles, 2005's Bottle Rocket and 2006's Lady Flash, and extensive world touring.
