Friday Music, Volume IV

_______________________________________
Blitzen Trapper // Wild Mountain Nation

Maybe the only reason I like this album is because of it's haphazardly played guitars that remind me of Pavement's Stephen Malkmus. Blitzen Trapper goes places Pavement never went (and probably never would). At times it's even reminiscent of the Grateful Dead (eeek!). Spanning from americana to electronica along the way touching upon prog, alt, indie, southern and hard rock.

Standout tracks:
Wild Mountain Nation
Sci-Fi Kid
Country Caravan

Justice // Cross

Listening to Justice gives me some of the same feelings I had when first listening to Daft Punk 10 years ago. That's probably because both groups make incredible dance albums that don't fit into the dance music mold.

Standout tracks:
Genesis
Let There Be Light
DVNO
