Hailing from Los Angeles, The Transmissions bring us OVER WIRES. This album is a collection of 11 cuts that are filled with a mix of up-tempo rock, catchy lyrics, and funky guitar riffs from Christian Bienne. The first track, "Traffic", hits you hard with a strong percussion foundation backed by driving yet subtle guitar lines. At times, what seems to be a loosely-structured song turns into a jam session in which each band member can shine at what they do best. I liked that a lot. The guitars are always in harmony with the drumming of Dennis Duncan and are the driving force behind this album. In all, OVER WIRES showcases what The Transmissions bring to the musical table, music with a hard-hitting edge that is different and refreshing. Find out more by checking out their Website,
