The Faceless Werewolves push their amps past Medium Freaky; the tornadic flail of Those Peabodys and the mod-punk strains of Big Black Smoke kill ’em allread

The Go is still known as “that one band Jack White was in before he was famous”—though that isn’t really fair. After all, The Go was a contemporary of The White Stripes in Detroit’s late-’90s garage-rock scene, and though the group didn’t have the looks or hooks of the city’s more successful bands, it certainly did right by the city’s skinny-boy sound on 1999’s Whatcha Doin’. The band’s latest, Howl On The Haunted Beat You Ride, finds The Go moving deftly from deader-than-dead garage rock to slightly less tired ’70s power pop and soft rock, incorporating the heartrending balladry of Badfinger on the lovely “Caroline” and almost bubblegum-glam choruses on bouncy, Sweet-like numbers such as “Invisible Friends.” Opening: Those Peabodys, Big Black Smoke, Faceless Werewolves. www.theonion.com
