about

What is “new”? What makes something “original”?

Self-inflicted creative doubts and projected frustration provides the lyrical framework for ‘Nothing New’, Transistor’s first release since 2018.

The new single from Wellington’s psychedelic trio sees the group taking a deep dive into fuzzed-out guitars paired with a newfound love for synthesisers. Gone are the lucid grooves of 2018’s ‘Soft Burning Silver’ EP; with propulsive rhythms, driving bass lines and electronic drum samples taking hold.

lyrics

Take the mould, fill it whole
Rejoice all that came before you
Now it's clear you're nowhere
Left behind in a mass of fear

Look who's made it, ones who faked it
Now they've fooled you too

Nothing is new
Restate past truth

Feeling old, doldrum mould
Restate all of your casual truths
Where to start, torn apart
Make it seem like you're the old you
