TRANSIT METHOD elaborate on new single “Another Wasted Life”:
“’Another Wasted Life‘ was a great collaborative exercise in building a song backward. Charlie first presented the gnarled outro riff, which we offset with the slower, grinding riffs that make up the bulk of the song. Austin has a robust doom metal scene, and the first half of the song is a nod to that. Factor in the melodic choruses and thrashy, double-bass ending, and it’s a great sampler of TRANSIT METHOD’s unique strengths”

“It’s really fucking rad…I reckon if you like ‘Jupiter’-era Cave In you’ll probably like TRANSIT METHOD a lot”— Metal Sucks
“A powerfully epic combination of punk, metal and dynamic vocals calling to mind some of the more truly epic moments of Jane’s Addiction‘s ‘Ritual De Lo Habitual.’” — Punknews
‘Othervoid’ marks the prog-metal quartet’s most bludgeoning, infectious and ambitious album to date. Brothers Matt LoCoco (vocals/guitar) and Mike LoCoco (drums)are joined by new members Bryan Rolli (guitars/vocals) and live Panopticon violinist Charlie Anderson (bass)cementing the band’s definitive lineup.
‘Othervoid”s seven tracks show the breadth of the band’s songwriting. The punk-metal riffs and dueling guitars of “Psychometry” evoke Mutoid Man and Iron Maiden, while the vocal harmonies and trad-metal gallop of “The Outside” recall Mastodon and Thin Lizzy. The album reaches its astonishing climax on “Frostbite,” a shapeshifting, nine-minute epic inspired by the 2021 freeze that left millions of Texans stranded at home without power and claimed hundreds of lives.‘Othervoid’ is the result of years of turmoil and triumph. With their future uncertain, TRANSIT METHOD charged into the eye of the storm and emerged on the other side with the strongest album of their career. The path was challenging, unpredictable and exhilarating – just like ‘Othervoid’.

“This is proggy post-hardcore with techy-riffs and soaring vocals (think Mars Volta, Fall of Troy, Protest the Hero, etc)” — Brooklyn Vegan
