Transistor Transistor

Transistor Transistor was an intense and highly respected hardcore punk band from New Hampshire, USA. Formed in the early 2000s, they blended aggressive hardcore energy with elements of screamo and noise rock, creating a raw, unrelenting sound that earned them a passionate underground following. Over their run, they released a handful of EPs, splits, and two full-length albums, with Ruined Lives (2007) standing out as a landmark release that showcased their evolution toward more structured yet still chaotic compositions.

Known for their powerful live shows and DIY ethos, Transistor Transistor shared members with other notable acts like Orchid and Wolves, linking them to a broader network of experimental hardcore bands. Though they eventually disbanded, their music continues to resonate with fans of emotionally charged and sonically adventurous punk.
