Right away, the very powerful and roomy sounding drums took me. This is a good thing, by the way. I like the energy right away. For a small instrumentation, they have created a big sound. Transit Belle has an album here that represents a large population of musicians in their sound and songwriting, with the almost Cobain style vocals.

Unfortunately, I can’t put my finger on the style or genre, but I can say I wish it would catch on outside of just our local club scenes. I can imagine that the next album from these guys will be just as good, and better. Musically, they have a lot going for them, and I can say, that based on their sound, and my experience with bands live, I would definitely like Transit Belle live.

Favorite Track: Track 1, “Buried Lazy”
