Curugil This another one of my favorite Trapper albums. A good selection of tracks that will make you think, keep you humming, and probably wondering how we can all have the same experiences but only Trapper can nail them down musically. If you've ever spent the evening outside or camped at Purple Point in Stehekin, the final 20 seconds of this will take you right back there.

about

A trippy groove-filled post modern sideswipe. Everything about this collection bends and slides you towards a deeply frivolous seduction. Another dramatic stride on the path towards wherever it is Trapper is ultimately heading.

Prog rock backbeat, jazz-marked fusionality, heartfelt acid folk ballads, drippy layered vocals, trancy electronic flirtations, hapless lyricality, compulsive rhythms, acoustic air, emotional honesty, serious boundary issues.

Reviews:
“Intergalactic Funk laced with Cosmic Consciousness”
“They say that music can change the world. Let’s hope that’s not the case.”
“Mr. Shua ties the whole album together.”
“Hey – what kind of music is this anyway?”
“Hard to believe all of this is intentional.”
“Glad you got this done before the Rapture.”

Lyric Excerpts:
“Standing in a forest, snow is coming down
Cover up my footprints, cover up the sound
Halfway in the bottle & halfway in the ground
Please don’t try to save me”
- from Standing In The Forest

“And even if I knew the way
to blur that pounding in my chest
to drain those thoughts that keep me thin
to halt the traffic in my corner
Even if I, even if I…”
- from The Passenger

“I used to think that life was love
But love is never by herself
And love with you was not enough
To keep the world from catching up.”
- from The Passenger

“I think that he’s a genius.
I think that he’s a moron.
I think he’s going to flush us down the drain to our graves.”
- from Dear Mr. Shua

“I don’t know how we could be so lucky
to find ourselves holding a second chance.”
- from Boat Goes Down (Chance Mix)
