Blitzen Trapper Announce New Album / World Tour

Some great news today as Blitzen Trapper have announced a June 8th release for Destroyer of the Void on SubPop. This is the follow up to the 2008's amazing Furr which dominated my stereo late that year and even found it's way into some commercials

If you haven't heard this band...get on it now. Their sound is based in folk rock but they also bring an experimental vibe to their music. With each album, they've expanded on the sound and I think "DotV" will be no exception. Just another step along the path to greatness for BT.

Just to keep you anticipatin' they've released a song off the album for free titled, "Heaven and Earth". Give it a listen by streaming it below!
