The wheel was certainly not reinvented here, but it doesn’t have to be, and it doesn’t always need to be announced again.
THE TRANSISTERS were founded in 2005 by the Italians Enrico, Meson, Alberto, and Matteo. In recent years, the band has spent time touring Europe, sharing stages with big names like Kaiser Chiefs, The Raveonettes, White Rose Movement, X-wife, Disco Drive, Vincent Vincent and the Villains, One Dimensional Man, The Alps, and many others.
As influences, the band cites Joy Division, P.I.L., The Fall, and Elvis. Together with producer Geoff Turner (New Wet Kojak, Girls against Boys), they recorded two EPs in July 2005 and September 2007, which are now being released as their first official release titled "Under Control" on July 28, 2008, digitally on af-music.
The nine tracks invite repeated listening, brilliantly combining punk and wave, no dropouts, no boredom, just the good old sound brought into the present. Nice. The last time I was equally excited about a release from the genre was when I listened to the last record by GENEPOOL, which I am reminded of again and again while listening through.
