Eight years later there is the predecessor to 'Haunted Cities'. Rancid's Tim Armstrong and Blink-182's Travis Barker are the initiators of Transplants. The two openers "In a Warzone" and "See it to Believe It" start very energetic and I already see myself standing at a summer festival jumping up and down with a beer in my hand. "Silence" is another song with a high tempo and because of Tim's voice it sounds a lot like Rancid. Overall the record is not as heavy as a regular Rancid album. Pop-punk is the best description that fits here. The songs invite you to sing a long and to dance and jump. This is a nice record to play in your car driving around with one arm out of the window and the other waving at the women. "It's a Problem" is a song with techno influences and an oriental melody. "Completely Detach" is one of the heavier tracks, but in general the nice pop melodies packed in punk sounds dominates. A nice bunch of songs, with a few that tops the rest. | ||||||||||||||||||
