M83 – “Go!” (Feat. Steve Vai & Mai Lan)

This morning we shared our review of M83's new LP Junk and now, following "Do It, Try It" and "Do It, Try It" and "Solitude," you can hear another track in advance of the album release on Friday. "Go!" features guitar god Steve Vai, of all people, along with French singer Mai Lan. The track begins with a synth-dipped, R&B flavor and then surges into controlled mayhem with an infectious bass groove and a killer Vai solo that carries the song to its crescendo. "We asked [Vai] for the craziest space solo possible, which wasn't hard for him," Anthony Gonzalez says in a press release. "He sent us three different takes, and we blended two to make the ultimate Steve Vai solo." M83 are firing on all cylinders on this one.
