Go2 built and expanded upon the band’s impossible to label White Music debut from the start of the year with smatterings of post-punk, sci-fi pop from another dimension, sharp lyri cs and, frequently, even sharper tunes, now joined by a fascination with dub music that merited an additional 5 track 12” EP to accompany the initial release.
