180/365

OK Go

High-octane live energy that trades studio precision for raw, fuzzy power. A document of a band at their most kinetic and communal.

180/365 captures OK Go at a fascinating crossroads, shedding the pristine skin of their viral music videos for a sound that is considerably more jagged and physical. While their studio albums are often defined by a meticulous, Rube Goldberg-esque precision, this live document breathes with the unpredictability of a touring rock band. The guitars are fuzzier, the synths are more aggressive, and the vocal performances are pushed to the brink of exhaustion, lending a human grit to their otherwise polished power-pop sensibilities.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosion of distorted bass during the bridge of This Too Shall Pass that momentarily drowns out the crowd
Damian Kulash's voice cracking slightly during the high notes of I Want You So Bad I Can't Breathe
The rhythmic precision of the handclaps in Get Over It syncing perfectly with the snare and the audience's roar
