Travisis a hardworking man. The evidence ? After the Box Car Racer album, he embarks
on a new side project called "The Transplants" with Rob Aston
as singer and "Rancid"'s guitarist Tim Armstrong.
Influenced by old "English Dogs" and "G.B.H.". It should
sounds Hardcore and Drum n' Bass.
A kind of reviving of the punk tradition...
Release :October 22.
Video filming
was on his diary too : "There Is" follows "I Feel So"
from "Box Car Racer". 80's inspired, a portion skewers a scene
from "Say Anything..." with John Cusack. The whole under an apocalyptic
rain.
And despite such busy days, he found enough time to add two Cadillacs to
his collection of 9 : a '54 Coup De Ville and a '78 El Dorado.
