Black River Killer is just an EP to hold us over till the next full length from Blitzen Trapper, but it's a good one nonetheless.
Black River Killer by Blitzen Trapper from Black River Killer EP

Humbug is a tough one to grab onto. For anyone expecting something of a three-peat, you're going to be initially disappointed. Is it more mature? Eh, maybe. It's not so much the same group of Arctic Monkeys that broke out in 2006. Who knows? This could be a completely new direction for the band. We'll see how it fares with fans in the next few weeks or so once the initially hype (and shock) wears off. Personally, I like it. But I don't love it.
