Los Angeles trio, Autolux, takes your basic guitar, bass and drum rock formula, adds occasional piano and overdubs and ends up with ambient rock. Sometimes heavy, other times delicate and introspective, Transit Transit maintains its melodic quality throughout. This sounds alright, not dissimilar to Radiohead, but I found myself losing interest after a song or two. Autolux isn't breaking any new ground with this release. Rebecca Ruth
