Go Radio Premiere “Go To Hell”

Heartbroken pop rockers Go Radio have partnered with MTV Buzzworthy to premiere the latest single from their highly-anticipated Sophomore album. “Go To Hell” features a piano heavy set of verses with vocalist Jason Lancaster’s signature throat-wrenching voice cutting through the rhythm with heartache and angst. A definite step forward for the band’s evolution, but still well within their wheel house, I have a feeling this one will be a hit amongst the show-going scenesters. Click past the jump and enjoy.

Go Radio will have a new album in stores this Fall. Stay tuned for updates.
