Zegema Beach Records just released Ruined Lives + Young Vampires (previously on Level Plane Records), a new re-release by US post rock infused post hardcore / screamo band TRANSISTOR TRANSISTOR.
Comments the label: “3 years in the making, after several tours trespassing through nearly every state in the US, including one with Circle Takes the Square and Fear Before the March of Flames that USofDave‘s car-less ass will never forgive for not coming to Chicago, this record is teeming with riff after riff of post punk hardcore. Kurt Ballou‘s always stellar production provides the chunk that bands like Refused brought to our attention a decade prior, with the drunken anger of Rollins-era Black Flag. Still as fresh and horrid as ever, it’s now available in tiny form.”
For fans of: Refused, Hot Snakes, and The Blood Brothers
Recorded and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City Studios. Layout by Dave Cullen.
