Transept are a hard band to pin down. I described them like this, not so long ago: ‘Transept are three telepathic omnichordologists, gently vengeful omnipresences, nonchalantly making music emanate as if it is a side-product of the intent interest they show in passing objects.’ But that isn’t quite hitting the nail on the head. Jason of Planet Beet infamy described them like this: ‘If you can imagine Robert Wyatt, struggling to tune in his wireless, during a robot thunderstorm, whilst trying to relay his newest piano song to his friends from Faust, via the power of thought..’ Pretty amazing, right? And they describe themselves as ‘Noise-ballad, disco-drone, shanty-prog’. Their new record is available from their website, and I’m sure they’ll have beautiful tangible copies at the gig. Don’t miss out! This Thursday 23/09/10 at The Norwich Puppet Theatre.
