The new Blitzen Trapper album, Destroyer of the Void, is officially out today, and you can stream the whole thing via the player above.

Part of the reason I’ve been a bit silent on this blog lately is I’ve been crazy busy cramming to get their new site built, so I’m happy to report that it’s up and running just fine now.  For you nerds out there, it’s all Ruby on Rails, with Topspin powering catalog sales (and all sales soon), and shows being sucked in via the BandsInTown API and Sub Pop’s BT RSS Feed.  I’ve got lots of plans for this thing, so hopefully you’ll be seeing lots of cool new functionality over the coming months.

Also, the blog is being powered by Tumblr, so if you’re reading this in your dashboard, I’d suggest following Blitzen Trapper on Tumblr! That’s all.  Looking forward to a nap.
