Description

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.

The result of years of internal turmoil and triumph… Transit Method charged into the eye of the storm and emerged on the other side with a fresh lineup and the strongest album of their career. The path was challenging, unpredictable and exhilarating – just like the album itself.

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.

The album was produced by Charles Godrey at Scary American Studios in Austin, TX (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Third Eye Blind, Whiskey Myers, Holy Wave), mastered by Dan Shike at Tone and Volume Mastering (Meat Puppets, Third Eye Blind, Larkin Poe) and features incredible album art from Marald van Haasteren (Metallica, Kvelertak, Gost).
