New Zealand/South African punk rock legends The Transits have just released their highly anticipated debut album The Transits, alongside a music video for lead single Heartbreak Queen.
Not only is this newly released debut album a 10-track Indie-Punk, Synth-Pop banger – it’s the result of many hours writing and recording online and across three home studios, two countries and two different time zones – with members Dom Antelme (vocals, bass) and Tyrone Smith (drums) based in Auckland, New Zealand and Ryan Lunn (vocals, guitars, synths) in Durban, South Africa.
Luckily, the trio know each other well, having made music together on and off since forming their first band as teenagers 30 years ago.
“We’ve been close friends for even longer than that, and the album definitely reflects the joy and passion of us being a band again,” says Dom. “It’s been a busy year of figuring things out and refining The Transits sound – a mix of rock, punk, indie and synth-pop – with the overall vibe being energetic.”
