American Goldwing is Sub Pop's third full-length release with Portland's Blitzen Trapper and the band's sixth full-length overall.

Over the course of their career they've earned rave reviews (from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, SPIN, and a whole lot more), played on television, appeared at festivals all around the world, done a staggering amount of touring, and sold a whole bunch of records.

On American Goldwing Blitzen Trapper let their loves and influences - hard guitar rock, country picking and pawn-shop Casio aplomb - hang out for all to see.

Singer/songwriter/guitarist Eric Earley says this record will make you want to shotgun a beer in the shower while listening to the Stones or Joe Walsh (well, or Blitzen Trapper).

American Goldwing is the band's first foray into direct, outside influence in the creation of a record, with mixing by Tchad Blake and co-production by Gregg Williams.
