Blitzen Trapper is the Portland, Oregon-based experimental country and folk rock band, who in 2008 released 'Furr', its breakthrough album and label debut for Sub Pop. The record was met with universal acclaim, earning praise from the likes of The Guardian, Pitchfork, Paste, AV Club, and Rolling Stone, who in its four-star review called the album "an engaging album full of rootsy beauty." The album would earn the no. 13 spot on Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2008 later that year. For this expanded deluxe edition of 'Furr', Blitzen Trapper have compiled over two albums worth of material: the original album and twelve rare and previously unreleased tunes. The added songs are from the same recordings that became 'Furr', with the exception of the 'Live At KCRW' tracks, which were recorded during the 'Furr' tour. This reissue also features new liner notes from Eric Earley reflecting on the album, as well as a track-by-track description of the bonus songs, and a Q&A with the stage and screen actor Rainn Wilson (of 'The Office' fame).
