Is Go a good place to start with Flow?

Yes, Go is recommended as a starting point for new Flow listeners. Energetic melodies and punchy rhythms blend alternative rock with pop-punk flair, creating an infectious soundscape. In 2004, Flow released 'Go' as their second studio album, following their debut 'Another Story' in 2003.
