ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Often compared to the early lo-fi eclectic mixtures of Beck, Portland, OR's Blitzen Trapper had already gone through various genres on its first few records.

Insound Staff Pick - 2008! Furr is the fourth record by Portland sextet Blitzen Trapper and the follow-up to last year's highly acclaimed Wild Mountain Nation.

VINYL FORMAT. As its title would lead one to believe, the Black River Killer EP contains the disturbing and great song "Black River Killer" from Blitzen Trapper's excellent September 2008 full-length album Furr. What is perhaps less evident from the title is that it also contains six more songs that have been, up to now, only available as a CD that Blitzen Trapper have only been selling at their live performances - until now!
