Trans Am Rev Out New Tune

Following their last effort, Liberation, Washington, D.C. denizens Trans Am toured the globe, departing not only from their home base, but from their signature synth and vocoder-saturated style. Recorded in New Zealand and New York and mixed in California, the rollicking rock of the upcoming Sex Change changed the way the trio recorded, as well; instead of developing over many months, the album went from concept to polished product in only three weeks. Proof that maybe a sped-up schedule suits them? “Conspiracy of the Gods” is a drag race of wailing guitars and amphetamine beats. Trans Am rev their motor on Thrill Jockey Records with the release of their eighth album, Sex Change, Feb. 20.
