Album Notes

NATIONAL REVIEWS:

"Darker than most, TRANSGRESSOR sends
"Holy Ride". A massive metal mix that borders on some kind of black opera. Smashing tunes that pull ya in and devour you whole, relentless guitars and one hell of a drummer. Atomic bomb fun for all you heavy meddlers and anyone brave enough to take that ride."- Starr Tucker, NY Waste Magazine July 2008



"Transgressor is an 80s band whose career never took off. According to the band's bio, the guys met up at a NYC Celtic Frost show and decided to bring the band back to life. The band only released material on cassette back in the day. Holy Ride is basically a collection of material retooled with "new lyrics and vocal melodies … from the band's first phase of songwriting from 1987 to 1988," states the bio. Well, I can say this EP is a gem and I can't wait until they come out with a full-length. The band is progressive thrash, a style you really don't hear much of at all nowadays. The vocal range is immense and spaced out, which fits well with the psychedelic and spaced-out moments of the music. In all the thrash bands I've listened to, new and old, I've never heard something as original as this; seriously, the diversity in the EP's five tracks is mind blowing and after only a couple listens, the "wow" factor hits. Be prepared to lift your jaw back in place after hearing this EP." –Bryer Wharton, Slug Magazine www.slugmag.com, July 2008
