Transient

TRANSIENT was spawned from the collective conscious of three inebriated minds, trapped for nearly four years in a miniscule, resin coated rehearsal space in the industrial underworld of Charlestown, MA. This recording marks the first time they have emerged from their self-imposed isolation and exposed listeners to their unique sound. The summer of 2003 found the band relocating thier rehearsal space to Fitchburg, MA (aka "the Dirty Burg") and tracking a new demo in May of 2004 in the very same room.



The music of TRANSIENT is based on constant motion and infinite growth. The ambient guitar melodies drift along side ethereal vocals drenched in effects. The relaxed song structures and solid rock n' roll rhythms serve as an anchor, holding the soaring melodies from escaping into the atmosphere.



Despite a history rooted deeply in metal and hardcore (the band features current Shadows Fall vocalist Brian Fair originally on drums and now on guitar and ex-Overcast guitarist Scott McCooe on bass) TRANSIENT has created a soothing and ambient sound-scape constructed on a foundation of swirling melodies, dramatic builds and undeniable hooks.



May of 2005 marked the first line-up change in the band's history with the addition of Kevin Rheault to the drum stool and Brian Fair's bold move to second guitar. This will enable the band to expand their ever-increasing sound and progress faster amidst Brian's hectic schedule with Shadows Fall.
