Portland, Oregon collective Blitzen Trapper have announced the release of a new EP as well as a rather giant tour of America and Europe. The band were selling a six-track CD on their tour in 2008 that featured unreleased material and it is this material plus an old track that featured on their debut LP Furr that will make up the EP.

In its ongoing hunt for the ever-elusive reindeer that shares the band's name, Blitzen Trapper have announced an extensive tour that takes the band from the West Coast down through the Southwestern U.S. There's one stop in Canada at Vancouver's Richards on Richards, which is strange because one nary scopes a reindeer south of the 49th parallel.

I’m going to write up a review right now but I wanted to share this great live video of my favorite track from last night’s show. It’s Blitzen Trapper on [...]

It didn't really receive a whole lot of hype though some bloggers really felt it should've been up there. Blitzen Trapper is [...] Related posts:Blitzen Trapper - Wild Mountain Nation Review Blitzen Trapper ca...

Are you wondering why the cover art for Blitzen Trapper's latest release, Furr, is made of wood? Maybe it's because that's exactly what this album will give you. It should include a disclaimer to help you avoid any potentially awkward public situations. Blitzen Trapper are a potpourri of all things good in music. Furr is like [...]
