Rest in peace Tim Landers. We never got the chance to meet Tim but his art in the form of Transit and Misser will always have a special place in the hearts of us and many others.

We released multiple records for Tim including one of our first. I’ll never forget the first time I saw him play in Haverhill, MA with @ManOverboardNJ. Rest In Peace brother. If there is an afterlife I hope you’re shredding a guitar there. https://t.co/7RBXEYoLSe

We don’t know if that is a “good statement”, but we love Tim & are grateful for the time we had with him & for all the music we put out together. We are working w/ a few other labels & people who were also fortunate enough to have relationships w/ him to help w/ expenses.

Aaron Pauley, Of Mice & Men
It's absolutely heartbreaking when people leave this Earth before their time. It always hits especially close to home when it's someone in the music industry, because our network of friends and coworkers is a big one.
If any friends need an ear or shoulder today, I'm here.🖤

Taking Back Sunday
So sorry to hear this. Much love to our friends in @Transitma. We don't have all the answers on Mental Health and addiction, we do know it's okay to take a break if you need it. Take care of each other out there. https://t.co/hQiq2aAs8F

Matt Wilson, Set Your Goals
And screw ignoring the elephant in the room: if you someone you know is struggling with addiction, do something about it even if it’s uncomfortable or makes you the “bad guy.” In retrospect, being the bad guy for a little while is a small price to pay to save a life.

Tim, it was my pleasure to have met you. And although we only got to hang out for a short time, I have stories to tell for a lifetime. Never got to say how much your guitar playing influenced me. We were too busy having fun. RIP Tim Landers. I know your influence will live on.
