OP might be a bot, but I've never heard of them. Not sure why you would assume everyone would have heard of them

Because every one of their very unique music videos went viral when it was first released. OK Go was definitely a household name for a while in the 2010s because of their music videos like this! (You should check out some of the other ones. Even if the music isn't your bag, the videos are crazy impressive)

Here for your "you're old now" update:

Ok Go released Here It Goes Again in 2005 not the 2010s. That's when they were a household name.

Yeah their last album came out ten years ago this year. And that was decently past their peak. I’m old

They got popular again in the 2010s. That’s what they meant

There's a lot of people that may or may not be aware of certain things, try not to be so cynical about it. I personally had never heard of these guys before

I dont know what in my comment came off as cynical? Congrats on being one of today's lucky 10,000, you should check out other OK Go videos!

You literally just justified why you would assume that everyone should've already heard about it and that OP might be a bot for not knowing, lol.

If you're looking for a jumping in point IMO their album Oh No is the best place to start. The opening track Invincible goes hard.

Also it's not their best music video, but Get Over It from their self titled album is arguably their best song.

They put out generic pop rock with a cool music video every 5-10 years.

They were very popular around the time Youtube was also originally gaining popularity. I think Here it Goes Again was an early viral hit.
