If you don’t like The Go! Team then we can’t be friends anymore. I’m sorry, but that’s the way it has to be. [kml_flashembed movie="http://youtube.com/v/w6KfJcjrSTM" width="425" height="350" wmode="transparent" /]

“Grip Like a Vice” is the band’s new single from the forthcoming Proof of Youth. It’s classic Go! Team with huge, rumbling percussion, searing guitars and the kind of energy that makes your ass involuntarily shake. The song does feature the notable nonsense lyric rapping of Ninja, who (I’m guessing) will be more of a presence on the sophomore effort.

The video is nothing special, but it nicely echoes the sonic collage aspect of the music. That, and it’s all retro-double-Dutch-old-school-blaring-boombox-ish.

I have tomato, basil, mozzarella, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.  Mmmmmmm…
