This is one of my favorite albums of all time. I love the weirdness; it's blue-grass, with some experimental quirkiness, with a definite indie-rock feel. Asleep for Days was the first song of theirs that I had heard when I bought the album. On first hearing the song, I thought that Modest Mouse or perhaps Franz Ferdinand had come out with a new album.

It's definitely worth getting in my opinion, if you're into that sort of thing...

If your one who likes to buy an album and expect a certain genre to stand out this may not suit you. For me Blitzen Trappers volatility keeps their albums fresh and every time I listen to them I find myself surprised by the different arrangements I hadn't recognized before.

I would say their sound is original pop/newgrass, rock, somewhat country?

If you love the all over the place style of Cake or The Gourds you should dig this.

This is a great album but if your checking them out for the first time I think Furr would be a good entry album.
