Transistor Transistor
Transistor Transistor started in a cluttered basement in Derry, New Hampshire in 2001. With nothing better to do than commit petty acts of vandalism, and practice all the time, the band got going quickly. By 2003 the band had toured relentlessly and worked with bands such as Wolves, Light the Fuse and Run, Daughters, Hot Cross, and Mannequin.
Transistor Transistor has taken on many shapes and sizes through multiple tours and a handful of splits and e.p.'s, but has never compromised its pact with Satan. After a great European tour in early 2004, the band found it necessary to regroup and move forward with the lessons learned from the first couple of years of being a band.
After relocating to Boston, MA with a solidified line-up and a newfound focus, Transistor Transistor completed work on their first proper full-length, with Erase All Name and Likeness released by Level-Plane in 2005. Exploring new songwriting possibilities, while not leaving behind any of its love for loud driving music, Transistor Transistor had now developed into a heavier, more complex, and more dynamic band capable of writing the kind of destructive rock only hinted at in their earliest material.
Once all the promotional work and touring for Erase All Name and Likeness was out of the way the band took a back seat, and with one band member living in Philadelphia and another in the process of getting married, it would be another three years before work was completed on their most recent full-length, Ruined Lives, which was released by Level-Plane in May 2008.
An East-Coast tour in support of the album was promptly cancelled (with the band quite literally on their way to the opening show), when guitarist and vocalist Nat was struck down with acute appendicitis.
