BlitzenTrapperFurrSound: They channel lots of vintage folk and roots rock (think Neil Young/Buffalo Springfield) and give it a poppier, more modern flavor. They also work in some glammy, arty, psychedelic and noisier styles.
Heavy Rotation tracks: “Furr”; “Black River Killer”
Medium Rotation tracks: “Sleepy Time In The Western World”; “Fire and Fast Bullets”; “War On Machines”; “Not Your Lover”; “God and Suicide”; “Gold For Bread”
Recommended: Furr is certainly a more focused and easier listen than last year’s wildly eclectic Wild Mountain Nation - Blitzen Trapper’s breakout album. But they occasionally shift gears abruptly on here, and it throws off the momentum of what is mostly a classic-sounding collection of hummable and memorable tunes.
