Part of the emerging Detroit garage rock scene of the late '90s along with their more famous brethren, <a href="spotify:artist:4F84IBURUo98rz4r61KF70">the White Stripes</a>, the Go formed in 1998. Vocalist Bobby Harlow, guitarist <a href="spotify:artist:1znJ8APotsJYWNkSVcPWJw">John Krautner</a>, and drummer Mark Fellis grew up together as kids -- the addition of guitarist Steve Nawara and bassist Dave Buick made the band complete and they began playing gigs in the Detroit area. An opening slot for fellow Detroiters <a href="spotify:artist:3ZZHB1Xh2PM88QTMiqHB62">? & the Mysterians</a> helped get them the attention of Sub Pop, which signed the band and issued their debut album, Whatcha Doin', in 1999. Featuring a little help from <a href="spotify:artist:4FZ3j1oH43e7cukCALsCwf">Jack White</a> on guitar and vocals, the album had an aggressive, noisy sound that still managed to work in a lot of references to R&B and soul, providing a fun, stylish, messy romp. A self-titled effort appeared in the fall of 2003 via British imprint Lizard King; the Go followed up in April 2007 with Howl on the Haunted Beat You Ride. ~ Stacia Proefrock, Rovi
