Trans Am met while playing in the legendary harDCore/ska collective BombLast.
A
few years later - and somewhat mistakenly - Trans Am was heard by a
Chicago-based vibraphone player named John McEntire. The band agreed to
record some songs with McEntire which, when combined with a bunch of
home recordings and other sound experiments, made up Trans Am's first
release on Thrill Jockey Records.
Originally lumped in with
post-rock - a guy-heavy/fun-light scene invented by music journalists
in the 1990's - the band has gone through a series of reactionary moves
like singing, drinking beer and burning things on stage. Live, he band
also mangled Led Zeppelin repeatedly. The band has been ugly, then
poppy, then psychedelic, then political, then merely refused to go away.
