PREMIERE: THE PNEUMATIC TRANSIT’s New Track “Enochian Dyskinesia”

by Ryan Minic | Sep 21, 2015

We’ve been talking about The Pneumatic Transit for a couple years now. The progressive/jazz-fusion project of former Exotic Animal Petting Zoo guitarist Jeff Zampillo has been in the works since 2013, and it’s seen its share of setbacks. Now the time has come, and the long-awaited debut album Concerto for Double Moon is set for release in October.

The band’s story is like something you’d see in a movie: they formed after things with Exotic Animal ended, and during the tracking of the record drummer Mike Mirro tragically passed away. For a while, nobody knew if the album would even see the light of day.

Today we’re super excited to premiere the first single off Concerto for Double Moon, a lengthy opus that comes out on October 13th. The songs on the record are pretty long, so we trimmed it down for the sake of this premiere.

Here’s 3 minutes of “Enochian Dyskinesia.”
