Blitzen Trapper Announce New Album ‘American Goldwing’

Blitzen Trapper have revealed details of their new album ‘American Goldwing’, set for a UK release on September 12.

The Portland sextet’s lead singer Eric Earley describes the follow up to 2010’s ‘Destroyer Of The Void’ as “me trying to evoke a true American nostalgia”

“My vision and focus while writing our new album was on the inescapable past,’ Earley explains. ‘It’s about those feelings of being trapped in a small town. That fine line between the rural and the suburban settings that define much of America, that line between love and loss that occurs when you find yourself taking it too easy and sticking around a lonesome town for far too long.”

The band have also released a teaser trailer for the record. Check it out above.
