Yep, looks like we made it to Halloween this year too. Congrats! The price for that is a scary and pretty graphic music video, courtesy of The Transits. Be warned though, it’s not for the faint-hearted! It seems to be a tradition for the NZ/South African group: in 2023, they did the same with ‘Lost Ones’, a single and video that caught the attention of music fans worldwide. Now, The Transits renew their commitment to creepy and gloomy visuals, and we must say they did a great job.
Showcasing the band’s anthemic force and pop-rock prowess, ‘Living Dead For A Paycheck’ is quite eclectic, boasting uplifting synth tones next to fuzzy guitars and punchy, steady drum grooves. Vocals are rather punk-rock flavoured, making the song a decisively quirky blend of influences. It’s authentic and original.
Lyrically, ‘Living Dead For A Paycheck’ is exactly what it says on the tin: have you ever experienced a job that completely drains your soul? A job so meaningless and robotic that’s making rich someone else, not you? Well, that can often be found in corporate offices, for a start… The Transits depict exactly that, check out the music video below, and perhaps show it to your friends in the middle of the night – that could be a fun challenge, we reckon!?
