CD REVIEW: TRANS AM, SEX CHANGE
Jan 16, 2007 5:33 PM, By Jason Jurgens
Trans Am have been on a journey since 2004's Liberation (Thrill Jockey), and Sex Change is better for it. Having disbanded for two years only to reunite in an Auckland studio, the D.C. trio continues to make odd and original music. Distorted guitars and live drums keep the sound organic, while synth sounds and random quirks produce a layered, electro-experimental effect. At times it's like you're teleporting through the galaxy ("North East Rising Sun") or trapped in a sleezy rock den ("Shining Path"). Hang on, enjoy the ride and don't be alarmed if your tapered legs want to dance.
