Transmission Cinema by Illogistical Resource Dept.
Transmission Cinema took a full year to record, mix and master.
From sweltering temps, torrential rains and leaking roofs, the band never lost focus on their goal of making an album of diverse yet accessible sounds.
Jim Harris added his songwriting skills this time around which contributed to the album's balanced mix of guitar and bass driven tracks. Vocals adorn the first several songs and feature guest singers, while the second half is instrumental. The I.R.D. has always been more than just a band. It's a collaboration of minds among friends.

Unconventional, quirky, and ominous have been used to describe the sounds of the San Francisco based power trio, the Illogistical Resource Dept. The I.R.D.’s bass heavy approach to songwriting comes from a wide range of influences including Primus, Rush, Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, Tool, Devo, and Pink Floyd.
