Go Bang!, the fifth full-length Shriekback album produced a significant number of Billboard modern rock hits Get Down Tonight, Intoxication, Shark Walk and Get Down Tonight. Released in 1988 after the departure of founding member and iconic bassist, Dave Allen, the album revolves around Barry Andrews. The band was under considerable pressure from Island Records to produce a hit from this album and British hitmaker Richard James Burgess was brought in to produce and mix the album. The album is significantly more commercial than the previous or subsequent albums and this caused some tension in the studio. However, it produced the necessary hits. The album sold well but unfortunately Joel Webber who was the A&R man at Island, died shortly before the album was released. Andrews returned to a more traditional Shriekback sound with 1992's Sacred City.
