Man o' man... I'm so excited that Trans Am will be in the Bay Area tonight at the GAMH... their two latest albums got severly burned by critics compared to their previous release... but what the fuck do uppity critics know anyway? If this little piece of "music for dogs" off their latest album doesn't convince you to go join a cult, their live act will.

Trans Am at the Great American Music Hall

The "post-rock" group Trans Am formed in Takoma Park, Md. in 1990 but did not become a serious group until 1995, when its members left college and recorded their eponymous debut album for Thrill Jockey. Blending electronics and traditional rock instruments to mimic mainstream sounds of the '70s and '80s, Trans Am earned much critical acclaim and a devoted underground following, consolidated by the release of 1997's Surrender to the Night.
