I'd love to see the dartboard the Go! Team chucked at before deciding on this utterly random and confusing cover. Perhaps the Team's aiming to cultivate a more aesthete-over-athlete image by covering a song from one of Sonic Youth's most disregarded albums, though this combined with the Kevin Shields remix gives the squad an 0-2 record when dabbling with indie monoliths. Ousting Kim Gordon's bohemian gasps with cheerleader cadences feels like high school Darwinism at its worst. On the flip side, they treat the instrumentation like a sacred cow, barely touching it save for the added handclaps and faux-Prodigy beats. It could be worse: they could've crammed another "Tighten Up" sample in there or really accentuated those Bring It On claps, but ultimately the Team's signature 1970s sheen yields too much to its noise rock sample.
