BLITZEN TRAPPER

* From outerspace to down at the farm, campfire singalong to dystopic atonal deconstruction, Wild Mountain Nation presents a raucous and varied constellation of favorite souvenirs from the Trapper's musical adventures.
* Brought forth in a spasm of creative mania, Nation is rough-hewn but lush, crackling (sometimes audibly) with a weird and lucid energy.
* The album was recorded and arranged by the band themselves, using a dizzying variety of techniques and media, including a secret process learned from friendly extraterrestrials. The group's trusty four-track was used to capture the "soul", "essence", or "kernel" of each song.
* Wild Mountain Nation a perfect countrified pop soundtrack for a summertime barbecue!
* "Remember Beck before his career devolved into magazine-pleasing genre exercises? These guys have the same bent, rustic perspective on popcraft, and a heap of ambition." -- Pitchfork
* "A chewy mash-up of groovy, Syd Barrett-y quirkiness and Elephant Six-style songsmithing .lucidly polished." -- CMJ
* "A dense but playful collage of indie rock, folk, and junkyard aesthetic electronic music. It's messy and loose and joyful and full of shouts and lo-fi drums." -- Skyscraper
* "Part Leppelin part Dukes Of Hazzard" - Seattle Weekly
