5.0 out of 5 stars The start of a highly under appreciated legacy!,
This CD is simply amazing. Its truly a breath of fresh air in a dank swamp of mediocre music. The songs are exceptionally crafted and are equally catchy as they are heavy. Each track on here is a winner. There’s just not enough I can say about this album.

As its been stated in other reviews for other TL albums, TL is for fans of Clutch, Machine Head, Soulfly, Static-X and the like.

Stand-out Tracks include:

Cosmical Satanical, Blood Sucking Super B*tch, Wants You, Soul

Remember B-Thong? In mid 1990s singer Tony Jelencovich started Transport League as a side project, a band which exhibited a much looser, groovier sound than B-Thongs quite rigid metal. Ironically, after Jelencovich left to focus on Transport League full time, B-Thong adopted much of Transport Leagues rockier sound for their 1997 album From Strength To Strength.
Transport Leagues first album Stallion Showcase came out in 1995 The follow-up Superevil came out three years later and was an improvement in every department. Rocking, swinging metal to shake your ass and drink beer to. There’s bits of White Zombie in there, plenty of Corrosion Of Conformity, some Load-era Metallica, perhaps a pinch or two of Kyuss, and healthy dose of Entombed’s trademark death ‘n’ roll. A band like Chicago’s Soil ripped off Transport Leagues sound completely and saw some success with it. While Transport League remained ignored and unknown.
