Depends on what you compare it to. Go doesn't have macros and idiomatically prefers C-style for loops to higher-level abstractions (except for the built-in "range" construct) for iteration. So in general Lisps like Clojure offer more opportunities for terse code. (Which style is easier to understand is of course a never-ending debate.)
