Music of the 2000's - Blitzen Trapper

Blitzen Trapper - Furr (2008)
As mainstream indie/college rock evolved through the decade it became apparent that 2008 became the year of the folk revival. Along with Fleet Foxes' Fleet Foxes, Blitzen Trapper's Furr were two of the best examples of albums that highlighted this movement.
With Furr, the band tightened their sound slightly from their amazing and stylistically diverse debut album Wild Mountain Nation. Personally, Furr has only gotten better as I've listened to it more and more.
There may have been other albums with more critical acclaim, but is truly an enjoyable album with "God & Suicide" and "Black River Killer" highlighting its 13 tracks.
