Could've Been A Genius If You Had An Axe To Grind
OK Go
Self Titled
Chin up, Chicago... you still have OK Go. Thanks to the band's guerrilla marketing genius on YouTube with the treadmill video, I started liking the radio hits from their second album. So I took a listen to their first album and loved every song. They have a way of writing the catchiest tunes that just stick into your brain. This is a band that I didn't want to like, it's poppy and happy - but when I searched my feelings, I knew it to be true... they're just good. I defy you to listen and not be immediately put into a better mood. In fact, any Bears fan with murderous feelings toward Grossman should first take a deep breath, count to ten, and put on some OK Go.
Tracks of Note:
What To Do, Get Over It, Hello My Treacherous Friends, CCCinnamon Lips

Duly noted. When it's -25 and the Bears just lost the Super Bowl in ungainly fashion, maybe it does take a pop group with a bald lead singer to jump start Chi-town's engines.
