Transverse City

by Warren Zevon

Transverse City cover art

A dark, heavily synthesized conceptual work, 'Transverse City' finds Warren Zevon inspired by William Gibson’s cyberpunk literature and the collapse of the Soviet Union. The album explores dystopian themes of urban decay, technological alienation, and corporate greed over complex, forward-thinking art-rock arrangements. It features an incredible cast of guest musicians including Jerry Garcia, Neil Young, and David Gilmour.
