Just over four years after Neil Hagerty and Jennifer Herrema disbanded the original version of Royal Trux, Herrema returned to music with RTX, a band that applied the swagger and snarl of Accelerator-era Trux to a different lineup.
Nadav Eisenmann and Jaimo Welch joined Herrema on RTX's debut, The Transmaniacon, which was released by Royal Trux's longtime label, Drag City, in fall 2004. Brian McKinley and Kurt Midness joined the fold for 2007's Western Xterminator, an even grittier, more potent distillation of Herrema and company's sound. Early the following year, Western Xterminator was reissued under the title RaTX; that fall, JJ Got Live RaTX -- which, despite its name, was not a live album -- offered more of the band's trademark shredding and sneering. ~ Heather Phares
