- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -



   Holy fuck this is amazing. Happy 8th birthday FNT.



   "It is fitting that ten seconds into Blitzen TrapperÆs fifth full-length

   record, front man Eric Earley utters that most sacred of rock ænÆ roll

   tropes: ôFor to love is to leave or to run like a rollinÆ stone.ö As is the

   case with just about every musician or band that has employed the BluesÆ

   greatest simileùMuddy Waters, Hank Williams, Van Morrison, the Temptations,

   the Rolling StonesùBlitzen Trapper is unabashed in its embrace of tradition.

   Over the course of their four full-length albums to date, including their

   revelatory 2008 Sub Pop release Furr, the Portland band has already made that

   much clear. And, EarleyÆs considerable poetic talents and his bandÆs

   hard-earned chops have gained them a growing international audience. The

   bandÆs continuing exploration of American music that spans from the æ60s folk

   movement to the country sounds of the æ70s, to the pop balladry and prog rock

   of the æ80s has earned it notice ranging from Rolling Stone magazine to

   late-night network television to Yo Gabba Gabba, among a great many others.

   Destroyer of the Void takes Blitzen Trapper one step further. But there is

   more to Blitzen Trapper than those traditions. More than anything, the band

   credits its music to its Pacific Northwest home. It is there that the six

   members came together ten years ago and formed a creative cauldron. During

   two distant and brief breaks from the bandÆs near-incessant touring for

   Furrùone in January 2009 and the other in January 2010ùEarley and a few of

   his bandmates entered the attic studio of the lauded Portland musician and

   studio engineer Mike Coykendall (Bright Eyes, M Ward, She & Him). In addition

   to his contributions, preternatural musical siblings Peter Broderick (Horse

   Feathers, Efterklang) and Heather Woods Broderick (Efterklang) wrote the

   albumÆs string arrangements, while folk standout Alela Diane lent her angelic

   vocals to the duet ôThe Tree.ö The heart of Destroyer of the Void, though, is

   still found in EarleyÆs meticulous songwriting. Here he is firmly in

   storyteller mode, expanding on the mythical world he created on Furr,

   creating a truly original American soundtrack."
