Our Take

BLITZEN TRAPPER's latest offering, "Holy Smokes Future Jokes," is a whirlwind of psychedelic folk-rock that will have you dancing one moment and contemplating the mysteries of the universe the next. The Portland-based band's eighth studio album is a wild ride from start to finish, with frontman Eric Earley's whimsical lyrics and infectious melodies taking listeners on a journey through time and space.

From the opening track, "Magical Thinking," BLITZEN TRAPPER sets the tone for an album that is equal parts playful and introspective. The band's trademark blend of crunchy guitars, swirling keyboards, and Earley's distinctive vocals is on full display here, creating a sound that is all at once familiar and new.

Tracks like "Masonic Temple Microdose #1" and "Requiem" showcase BLITZEN TRAPPER's knack for blending catchy hooks with mind-bending lyrics, while "Dead Billie Jean" and "Hazy Morning" offer up some of the album's most powerful and emotional moments.

Overall, "Holy Smokes Future Jokes" is a triumph for BLITZEN TRAPPER, cementing their status as one of the most innovative and exciting bands in the folk-rock genre. So grab your headphones, sit back, and let this album transport you to a world where anything is possible. Trust us, you won't regret it.
