"Taiwan’s indie scene hasn’t seen this much fun from a “Girl-power” band in a long time. Go Chic’s I Am Confused! is an energetic electro-rock romp that sounds anything but confused. This debut album, from a Taipei group formed in 2007 by high school classmates Ariel Zheng (鄭思齊), Sarah Wen (溫一珊) and Sonia Lai (賴思勻), is full of catchy beats, punk verve and a sassy, irreverent wit. Zheng, the band’s 22-year-old vocalist, sings about dancing, partying and boys — some of them cute, some of them repulsive. On the anthemic This is Go Chic, which celebrates “party party people” on the dance floor, she is both flirtatious and taunting: “You’re looking pretty fit/Doesn’t mean I’ll take your shit.” Beneath the disco revelry, Go Chic also sneaks in some commentary about pop culture and the influence of the West. Culture Supervisor, which has a line that inspired the album title, is about a “culture vulture” who is an “East-West mixture.” On P.O.D, Zheng rants about a self-righteous, sleazy foreigner in Taipei: “What’s your job, no wait let me guess, must be an English teacher/You go to clubs every night hitting on hot chicks ’cause damn you’re a player/Keep pimping pumping pompous loser I’ll teach you some manners.” Above all, though, these songs are designed to get your body moving — and they do. Go Chic are great at balancing synth-noise and guitar jams with catchy pop hooks on songs like Hard Date and 24hr Party Pooper. Clap It for the Heartbreakers is another anthemic dance tune and the perfect antidote for those tired of mindlessly stale nightclub music. Go Chic landed a performance slot at the South By Southwest Festival in the US earlier this year, and this party-on-a-disc testifies to their notable talent and confidence as a band." —DAVID CHEN
