Album Review
Trans Am play mostly big dumb rock (of the tongue-in-cheek variety) on their Thrill Jockey debut, trading Boston and Foreigner licks with a talent for technique and not a little ironic displacement. Absent the irony this would be an absolutely horrendous record, but kept in mind it's an enjoyable, if somewhat expendable listen.
Customer Reviews
Praise Solid Rock
This is where it began. Trans Am may have faded with their last few albums, falling too far into derivative sound without substance. But the rock proposed on this album, leading to their apex with the surveillance, is pure, essential and intense. American Kooter is as anthemic as rock could ever be, with just enough irony to keep you from feeling ashamed. If you need lyrics, then you miss the point. It is about the band.

When I purchased this cd back in the day. My buddy at the records store gave it this "review" when I asked hime about this record...He said, "It's 90's rock versions of 80's video game music."...'nuff said.
Yes! video game soundtracks!
Thank you Cheap Ploy! that is exactly, verbatim, how it was described to me by my best friend over 10 years ago. too funny! great album.
