Biography
When Tony Jelencovich recorded the first Transport League album at the end
of 1994, he was still the vocalist of B-Thong. At that period this band was
considered as a side-project but, when the album was finally released in
February 1996, Tony had left B-Thong as of musical differences. He just
wanted to play his own music and decided to focus on Transport League and
turn it into a proper band. The reactions on "Stallion Showcase" were very good and the album was
released almost worldwide and the term “Boogie from Hell” was stated.
Transport League then released several albums, Superevil in 1997 thru Mascot Records & Satanic
Panic in 2000 thru Pavement Records which all where recorded with Roberto Laghi at his Oral
Majority Recordings in Gothenburg/Sweden.
This album was released in April 1997 and just got great reviews and
interviews all over Europe. They played as headliner in Scandinavia, France,
The Netherlands and Switzerland. Transport League also played some major festivals here in Sweden
such as: Hultsfred festival in 1997, Arvika Festival in 2001 and the huge Dynamo Festival in
Eindhoven/Holland in 1998.
The video clip "Magnetic Star" from the Superevil was broadcasted on MTV "Super Rock" for about 2
months and the late release in the States has been really successful
(Transport League was voted "Most Overlooked Band 98" by the Trade Magazine
FMQB).
Transport League disbaned in 2005, but was reactivated in 2009 by the original members.
Transport League did some re-union shows, but also started to work on some new songs in the style of
the two first albums “Stallion Showcase” & “ Superevil”, and the “Boogie From Hell” feeling was
right there !, the power, the groove, the energy, everything just felt right !.
The band has now recorded 14 songs at IF Studios with producer Roberto Laghi ( In Flames, Sonic
Syndicate, Mustasch, LOK, Dia Psalma etc and we are now looking for someone to release it !. 8 premixes has been done, listen to the tracks “Holy Motherfucker”, “Electric Wolf” & “Swing Satanic
Swing” and you will understand what we are talking about !,..enjoy the Boogie from Hell !!, we are
back !!!
