Blitzen Trapper, Destroyer of the Void


Blitzen Trapper's latest Destroyer of the Void is a great album.  Their sophomore album, Wild Mountain Nation, displayed their taste for eclectic alt-country/spacey rock and had some great tracks.  Their third album, Furr, saw them lay some of their eccentricities to bed for a more focused effort.  Destroyer of the Void continues in the vein that Furr began, but it is not a continuation of it by any means.  The latest is a rootsier (I just made that word up) album.  The songs are stripped down and the album is not covered in the fuzz of their previous efforts.  They seem to be growing up.  This is a great album and the more I listen to it the better it gets.  Check out the 2 songs below and decide for yourself.

Also, check out another song on Scott's previous post here.
