We are OK Go and this is our Twitter. New music video and album OUT NOW.
Videos
On this day in 2006, we released the Here It Goes Again music video. This video cost less than $5,000 and was shot in 17 very sweaty takes, but it took us to the Grammys, the VMAs, and to the email inboxes of millions of people (you couldn’t share videos to social media back then). 20 years later, we actually now can share this to social media. Enjoy!

Today is the 16th anniversary of the White Knuckles music video. We worked with 12 wonderful trainers, who taught the choreography to 14 rescue dogs over the course of 3 months. We had to learn the dance, too. As it turns out, you really can teach old dogs new tricks.

Back when MTV was abandoning music videos for reality TV and the internet was a place none of us really understood, we made a habit of putting ourselves in front of a camera with a silly idea, throwing it to the dogs of the world wide web, and seeing where it took us. Before then, a homemade, rudimentary music video like this couldn't have dreamed of winning a Grammy, and we aren't positive, but we're pretty sure that in today's internet age, it wouldn't have a chance either. But "Here It Goes Again" happened because at just the right time, with just the right amount of internet literacy, four guys in dandy suits with eight treadmills and a beginner-to-intermediate grasp on choreography (who were bestowed with the immense advantage of having help from the brilliant Trish Sie) gave it a go, again and again and again and again.

The Here It Goes Again music video turns 20 today. After 17 takes and several twisted ankles, we uploaded it to a weird new website called “YouTube,” and being in the world (or at least being in OK Go) was never the same again. Since then, LEGO, the Simpsons, marching bands, Broadway shows, and every talent show worth its name has joined us in celebrating the joys of dancing with gym equipment, and OK Go went from being a rock band to being…. OK Go. We’re pretty happy about how it all turned out. Much love to our co-director, Damian’s sister and life-long co-conspirator Trish Sie. We’ll be posting a bit about the music video and our VMAs performance in the next few weeks. Here 2006 goes again.

This video was dreamt and planned and scrapped and planned over a five-year period. That’s because very few people believe in one-take, three-minute dance routines where animals outnumber humans three to one. We were told that, sure, dogs can do plenty of impressive tricks—so long as the sequence is no longer than 15 seconds. We pushed onwards. We weren’t after kennel-club displays of agility, freestyle, or obedience. No circus acts, either—but something distinctly different. Something we’d come to define only with the incredible patience and panache of co-director Trish Sie, the extraordinarily Talented People of Talented Animals—Lauren Henry, Roland Sonnenburg, and Paul Jasper—and our star-studded cast of performers. (Really, we were just stagehands in the dogs’ production.) It’s been 15 years since the filming of White Knuckles, but we old dogs still have a few new tricks to try. Alongside the 4/11 release of our new album—our first in over a decade!—we’re dropping A BRAND-NEW MUSIC VIDEO. Of course, its premise is characteristically ridiculous—something also probably thought to be achievable only in 15-second intervals. Let us know if you have any guesses. Big reveal in TEN DAYS.

It’s here: our brand-new music video for our brand-new single, “A Stone Only Rolls Downhill,” which is now streaming everywhere one could hope to stream. There are many things to say, and we plan to say them very soon. For now, we’ll leave you to it. This is OK Go on 64 phones. (65, including yours.) Enjoy some well-deserved screen-in-screen-in-screen time. (And go like and save the song on your streaming service of choice!) Directed by Damian Kulash Jr. (damian kulash) and Chris Buongiorno (chris buongiorno)

An entirely new OK Go music video for an entirely new OK Go song off of an entirely new OK Go album—can you believe it? This one’s called Love. Only took 29 robots to make the whole thing happen. We hope you, well, Love it. Directed by Damian Kulash Jr., Aaron Duffy, and Miguel Espada. Big thanks to Ray-Ban Meta, PMI, Universal Robots, and YouTube Music.

On a Thursday in 2010, we slipped into our monochromatic neons, ventured to a local park, and tried to manipulate the very fabric of time. We couldn’t quite sort out the whole general relativity thing, so we instead opted for a 21-hour interpretive dance and a series of high-speed cameras with hot-swappable data cards. (Good enough.) The fastest we recorded was 172,800x, condensing a full day into one half-second. The slowest was 1/32, stretching that same half-second into 16—and giving this four-minute music video a timescale ratio of 5.5 million. To pull the whole stunt off, we enlisted the help of two all-around cool artists: Jeff Lieberman and Eric Gunther. A huge thank you to both of them—and to our media darling, Orange Bill, of whom this post is in loving memory. This song, “End Love,” is from “Of the Blue Colour of the Sky,” an album we released 15 years ago. Well—almost. Remember to say “Happy Birthday” this Sunday. And remember to pre-save our NEW song, “A Stone Only Rolls Downhill,” which will be available everywhere on 1/16. (Psst: There’s a music video coming, too.)

New visualizer out NOW—our collaboration with the incredible William Shakespanderson, Lucas Zanotto 👀, and Blender Studio 🔶. An animated, open-source lyric slash live performance (?) video we think you're reeeally gonna love. We sure do. Go on and watch Impulse Purchase—and then, if you are an animator who uses Blender (or an animator who wants to use Blender, or anybody at all who is curious about the world of animating), go *enter* Impulse Purchase. Knock yourself out. Don’t forget to tag us in what you come up with. We would positively love to see.
