Wild Mountain Nation

Teeming Portland-based musical clan Blitzen Trapper is pleased to announce the arrival of its third brood of offspring songs, that is in the shape of an album called Wild Mountain Nation. Brought forth in a spasm of creative mania, Nation is rough-hewn but lush, crackling (sometimes audibly) with a weird and lucid energy. From outer space to down on the farm, campfire sing-along to atonal dystopia, the new album is a raucous constellation of favorite souvenirs from the Trapper's gamut-running musical adventures. As usual, the group's trusty fourtrack was used to capture the 'souls' of the songs, which were then buried in a rich soil of sweat and love so that in due time a delicious, varied harvest of fresh music was drooping from the vine. Taste it it's good!
