There's really no need to jump headlong into the unknown when the foundations set down on ''Fanfares'' were so strong. v2.0 builds on those foundations with style, further establishing GoGo Penguin as one of the most exciting young bands on the contemporary scene." This album was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize, Mercury Prize in 2014.
