The Go-Go's rose to fame in the early 1980s. Their debut album, ''Beauty and the Beat'', is considered one of the "cornerstone albums of new wave" (Allmusic), breaking barriers and paving the way for a host of other new American acts. In the beginning, they played primarily a pop-inflected form of the emerging punk sound, and later defined themselves with the distinct sound of 1980s rock. The Go-Go's had five U.S. Top 40 hits. Musical influences include Music/TheRamones, The Shangri-Las, the Music/{{Buzzcocks}}, Music/TheBeatles, Music/TheBeachBoys, and Music/{{Blondie}}. During their career, the Go-Go's have sold more than seven million albums.
