Traams is a UK Indie Rock / Post-Punk band that was formed in 2011. With their energetic and raw sound, they have captivated audiences around the world. Drawing inspiration from bands like Gilla Band, B Boys, and TVAM, Traams has carved out their own unique place in the music scene.
Known for their intense live performances, Traams delivers a powerful and immersive experience to their fans. Their music combines catchy melodies with gritty guitar riffs and driving rhythms, creating a sound that is both infectious and thought-provoking.
With influences ranging from Preoccupations to Fat White Family, Traams has developed a distinctive style that sets them apart from other artists in the genre. Their songs are filled with introspective lyrics and evocative storytelling, allowing listeners to connect on a deeper level.

Recorded throughout 2012 and 2013 with producers Rory Atwell and MJ from Hookworms, the aptly-titled 'Grin' is eleven tracks of pure distorted joy. Starting off with 'Swimming Pool''s sonorous, atmospheric welcome, the album twists and turns it's way through shards of hooky indie pop in 'Flowers' and 'Fibbist', plunging into darker krautrock depths in 'Klaus' and the title track. 'Grin' successfully captures the raw energy of Traams' frenzied and sweaty live performances. For fans of: McLusky, Parquet Courts, Shellac, Fucked Up, Thee Oh Sees, Neu, Television etc.Vinyl - Limited Purple version.
