The first three mentioned groups have tracks listed here, but the rest of this article is about the Canadian punk band.

Reset was formed in 1995 in Montreal, Quebec. Originally the band members were Pierre Bouvier, Philippe Jolicoeur, Charles-André "Chuck" Comeau and Jean-Sébastien Boileau. Reset recorded a demo tape : Concerned, in 1995.

Then came the first full length album: No Worries in 1997 recorded at Le Studio Morin-Heights. The band shot a video clip for the single “Why”. In 1999 Reset had a different line up. Pierre was now singing and playing bass, and a new member, Adrian White from Vancouver, joined to play drums with the punk rock band based out of Montreal. In 2000 they released No Limits. This album was recorded in Vancouver BC and was produced by Greg Reely.

Three video clips were filmed for No Limits: Pollution, Pressure, My Dream and I. David Desrosiers replaced Pierre Bouvier in 2001 but only to stay with the band for 6 months, leaving to join Simple Plan, already consisting of two previous band members, Pierre Bouvier and Chuck Comeau.

In 2004, Reset came back with a third album : Radioactive. The album was produced, performed, mixed and mastered by Philippe Jolicoeur. The next year in 2005 RESET has a new line-up with Phil (guitars & vocals) Martin Gendreau (drums) and Claude Plamondon (bass & vocals).

Over the years Reset has participated in five Canadian tours and one American tour,the 2000 Vans Warped Tour in North America. Reset has played with bands such as Greenday, Nofx, Pennywise, Lagwagon, MxPx, Millencolin, Strung Out, Face To Face, Papa Roach, Ten Foot Pole and many more.

Overall Meaning

In the song "Go Away" by Reset, the band sticks it to the people who are trying to tell them what to do and what to say. They make it clear that they don't care about what these people demand because their values never meant anything to the band. They mock the people who sign petitions and parents who stand in lines just to stop their kids from hearing what they have to say. The song talks about how when they were younger, the dream was to become a rocker, but now that they have achieved it, people seem to hate them for it. The band declares that they will never conform to what people want them to do because what they do is what they love, and they will never sell out just to please someone else.

The lyrics of this song are dripping with rebellion and a refusal to conform to societal norms. The band is essentially telling the listener that they should do what they love and not let anyone tell them otherwise, even if it means going against the wishes of societal gatekeepers. The song seems to be an anthem for young people who are trying to find their voice and stand up for their beliefs against the status quo. If there is one message that the band is trying to convey in "Go Away," it's that they will not be silenced, and they will keep doing what they love despite any backlash they might receive.
