Our Take

The Go-Gos, pioneers of the 80s punk-pop scene, are back with their latest album "Beauty And The Beatin". And let me tell you, it's a wild ride from start to finish.

From the opening track "Head Over Heels" to the infectious "You Can't Walk In Your Sleep (If You Can't Sleep)" and the rebellious anthem "Get Up And Walk", the Go-Gos deliver a non-stop barrage of catchy tunes that will have you dancing in your living room in no time.

But don't be fooled by the upbeat melodies and sugary sweet harmonies, because beneath the surface lies some surprisingly deep and introspective lyrics. Tracks like "Speeding" and "Turn To You" showcase the band's growth as songwriters, tackling themes of love, loss, and self-discovery with a newfound maturity.

Of course, it wouldn't be a Go-Gos album without their signature blend of punk attitude and pop sensibility. Songs like "Can't Stop The World" and "Capture The Light" are classic examples of the band's ability to combine catchy hooks with a rebellious edge, creating a sound that is uniquely their own.

In conclusion, "Beauty And The Beatin" is a triumph for the Go-Gos, proving once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of pop music. So go ahead, crank up the volume and let the infectious energy of this album wash over you. You won't be disappointed.

About the artist

The Go-Go's

The GO-GOs are the quintessential embodiment of the vibrant, rebellious spirit of 80s new wave music. Hailing from the sunny shores of Los Angeles, this all-female group burst onto the scene in 1981 with their smash hit single "Our Lips Are Sealed" which captured the hearts of fans worldwide. Led by the fearless frontwoman Belinda Carlisle, the GO-GOs quickly became renowned for their infectious energy, catchy melodies, and killer guitar riffs. With a sound that seamlessly blended punk rock attitude with pop sensibilities, they carved a unique space for themselves in the male-dominated music industry of the time. Their debut album Beauty and the Beat skyrocketed to the top of the charts, making them the first all-female group to achieve a number one album. Hits like "Vacation" and "We Got the Beat" solidified their status as icons of the era, with their songs still being played on radio stations and dance floors to this day. But the GO-GOs weren't just about the music - they were also known for their wild antics, rebellious spirit, and unabashed femininity. From their daring fashion choices to their energetic live performances, they proved that women could rock just as hard (if not harder) than their male counterparts. Despite internal tensions and lineup changes over the years, the GO-GOs have remained a powerful force in the music industry, inspiring generations of female artists to break boundaries and forge their own paths. Their legacy as trailblazers in the world of rock and roll is one that will never be forgotten.
