Austin is a hotbed for rock ‘n’ roll and Transit Method are one of many metropolis’s rising stars, their proggy tackle onerous rock and heavy steel giving them a recognizable and enjoyable sound. Having launched their newest album, Othervoid, in February, Transit Method hold the momentum going with a canopy of “Set Me Free,” initially by onerous rock legends Candy.
It is the fiftieth anniversary of “Set Me Free” and the album it was featured on, Candy Fanny Adams. The duvet highlights the issues that make Transit Methodology stand out within the first place: twin guitars, vocal harmonies and a barely off-kilter prog vibe.

“Most individuals know Candy for ‘Ballroom Blitz’ and ‘Fox on the Run,’ however they don’t get sufficient credit score as a killer onerous rock band. Once we listened to ‘Set Me Free’ as a gaggle, all the weather of a traditional Transit Method track immediately jumped out at us. That is proto-metal at its best. The dual-lead guitars and operatic vocal harmonies have been already there for the taking — all we needed to do was quicken the tempo and inject some bizarre time signatures to make it our personal.”
