Recorded circa 2006, Waking Bullets At Breakneck Speed is the first of the Unreleased Recordings series from Portland country-folk rockers Blitzen Trapper. The tracks on the album were recorded in PDX at the Telegraph Building (on 4-track cassette tape, if you care about that sorta thing) around the time the band was working on Wild Mountain Nation and Furr, and for Record Store Day 2017, the quintet digs into its vaults to present songs like "Be A Bird," "Crackerjack Tattoo," "The Gunslinger," "Crushing The Wheat," "The Abduction," and "Kings Of The Range" on vinyl, which is limited to only 1400 copies. A must for fans of the eclectic group!
