Were you hoping for the #MusicMondaTuesday bit? Sorry, I don't do that bit anymore. That is SO March 2010...
Ok Go is an "alternative, power pop, dance," group (nice to see alternative sneaking up in here amongst all the indie bands), originally from Chicago, IL that has since relocated to LA. With only three studio albums to their name, since forming in 1998, some might say that they are a little slow to release material. As with 99.999% of my musical selections, I prefer quality over quantity, as I'm sure all of you do also.
Similarly, I'm sure most of you will remember the video from "Here It Goes Again," (from 2005's "Oh No") below from the "treadmill video," that you're probably shaking your head to as you read this. Well, things have taken a drastic turn between 2005 and 2010. Their current album, "Of the Blue Colour of the Sky," features "a much more funky, dancy, yet melancholy sound to it, drawing influence from Prince."

I lobe the treadmill video!
