OK Go Artist Snapshot:

OK Go's popularity is testament not only to the Chicago band's crunchy-guitar, power-pop flammability--in evidence since their late-1990s beginnings--but also to the mixture of media canniness and of-the-moment grace that allowed them to ride a wave of viral fervor surrounding their DIY videos posted on YouTube.com. Already well-regarded for their opening slots on They Might Be Giants' tours, and as the pit band for the traveling road show of NPR's THIS AMERICAN LIFE, the band got the extra publicity push they needed when their videos became some of the most downloaded in YouTube's then short history, and helped drive the sales of their second album, 2004's OH NO, through the roof.

Recording information: The Village Recorder, Los Angeles, California; Gula Studion, Malmo, Sweden (2005).

From the opening blast of "Invincible" to the defeatist strains of "The House Wins," OK Go's second album, OH NO, is a potent dose of pure power-pop. Here the Chicago band is paired with Swedish producer Tore Johansson (Franz Ferdinand, the Cardigans), and the result is unabashedly high-energy rock. The group's Cars influence in still running strong, but OK Go wisely uses that sound as an engine to drive the group further into its own no-frills territory, where catchy choruses abound amidst bold guitar lines and propulsive rhythms. The Franz Ferdinand connection becomes obvious on the slinky "A Million Ways," which is a distant dance-rock cousin to FF's "Take Me Out." Led by vocalist/guitarist Damien Kulash, who often sounds like a more motivated Stephen Malkmus, OK Go knows how to craft immediately catchy tunes, and the record showcases the quartet's hyperactive talents to wonderful effect. For revved-up melodic rock with an edge, you can't go wrong with OH NO.
