The Go appeared in Detroit in 1996, led by \u003cstrong\u003eBobby Harlow\u003c\/strong\u003e and featuring \u003cstrong\u003eDave Buick\u003c\/strong\u003e on bass and \u003cstrong\u003eJack White\u003c\/strong\u003e on guitar. Following the release of their 1999 debut, \u003cem\u003eWhatcha Doin'\u003c\/em\u003e, and a few lineup changes, the band hit the studio with \u003cstrong\u003eDion Fischer\u003c\/strong\u003e on lead guitar, \u003cstrong\u003eJohn Olson\u003c\/strong\u003e (of \u003cstrong\u003eWolf Eyes\u003c\/strong\u003e) on saxophone, and \u003cstrong\u003eCary Loren\u003c\/strong\u003e (of \u003cstrong\u003eDestroy All Monsters\u003c\/strong\u003e) to record their sophomore effort. The session found the band and their producer, \u003cstrong\u003eMatthew Smith\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cstrong\u003eOutrageous Cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e), exploring the outer edges of rock and roll, with blaring lead guitars, copious amounts of reverb, and a heavy jazz influence thanks to a heavy diet of '60s free jazz. The results erupt from the speakers with a cavernous sound, like some haunted frequency beamed across the time barrier from the Grande Ballroom circa 1968, often sounding more like records by \u003cstrong\u003ePharoah Sanders\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eSun Ra\u003c\/strong\u003e than the records being made by The Go's peers in the '00s rock and roll scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFree Electricity\u003c\/em\u003e was written, composed, and arranged by Bobby Harlow (except track one, which was written by Harlow and Dion Fischer; and track five, written by Harlow and Cary Loren). \u003cem\u003eFree Electricity\u003c\/em\u003e was mixed and produced by Matthew Smith, engineered by \u003cstrong\u003eJim Diamond\u003c\/strong\u003e at Ghetto Recorders, and mastered by \u003cstrong\u003eJim Kissling\u003c\/strong\u003e at Jim Kissling Mastering in Detroit, Michigan. Guest appearances by folks from Destroy All Monsters and Wolf Eyes only reinforced the album's musical direction. Weird or not, this was an inspired recording made by an inspired group of musicians. There was a feeling of excitement and adventure happening at these sessions, it shines through mightily on this album.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SUB POP","offers":[{"title":"Loser Edition Metallic Gold Vinyl LP","offer_id":58527265096025,"sku":"SDZ-48475","price":27.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":58527265128793,"sku":"SDZ-48476","price":13.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/TheGo_FreeElectricity_CombiMockup_LP_1500x1500_478fd3f2-2420-4184-a042-55e4381e10a0.png?v=1783503405","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/the-go-free-electricity","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
