![]() The band first began by recording bass, drums, and guitars first, and then adding Scannel's vocals. Upon a couple of weeks of rehearsing, the band began recording alongside music producer John Shanks. Once ample ideas were in place, the band would enter the rehearsal space, where the band worked on arranging the album, and either expanding or trimming segments of tracks. How developed song ideas were varied by the track some, such as "Underwater", was only a loose outline of a song, where as the track "Forever", was almost fully realized. The process started with Scannell writing material in solitude, and then presenting his ideas to the rest of the band. Despite the band's origins as a duo where Matthew Scannell and Keith Kane split singing and songwriting duties, the band dynamic shifted to Scannell proving majority of both for Everything You Want, and all of both for Go. The Go sessions began after commencing the two and a half years of touring in support of Everything You Want in early 2002. The band took a break from touring in early 2002 to move to Los Angeles and start recording sessions for Go. However, the band ended up touring in support of Everything You Want for about two and a half years at request of their label. The album was later re-released as Go 2.0 in 2005 on Hybrid Recordings, with a new track "Better When You're Not Here" and rearranged track listing.Īfter the band's release of their double platinum album Everything You Want in 1999, the band had initially intended to record a follow-up right away. The album was well received by critics, who praised the album for being enjoyable despite not being especially inventive, but did not perform well commercially, with it not charting within the top 60 in its first week, and failing to achieve any RIAA certification. The first single off the album was "I'm Still Here", and "Forever" was released as the second and last single. The album was released over a year later on September 23, 2003. Recorded in early 2002, the album was ready as early as that August, but was instead delayed extensively due to restructuring at the band's label, RCA Records. The album, a follow-up to the band's double platinum Everything You Want, continues to expand upon the band's alternative and pop rock sound while moving into more hard rock directions as well. Go is the fourth studio album by alternative rock band Vertical Horizon.
