Trans Am’s latest record, Volume X, is, in fact, the band’s 10th LP. Due out May 20 and recorded in spurts over the past three years, the LP finds the trio once again twisting and warping its post-rock style to yield new and weird outcomes. Below, The A.V. Club is premiering the video for “Megastorm,” one of Volume X’s 10 tracks.
Trans Am is on tour this spring. Dates are below. Volume X is available now for pre-order via Thrill Jockey.
