Mike Sniper never meant to be one of Brooklyn's 'most mysterious musicians'. Things just ended up that way, as the singer/multi-instrumentalist released a steady stream of limited singles and EPs on such reputable indie labels as Sacred Bones, HoZac and Woodsist.

Not to mention's Sniper's own Captured Tracks imprint-a carefully-curated roster that's grown as quickly as Blank Dogs itself, thanks to such buzz-stirring releases as Dum Dum Girls' debut EP and recent records by Beach Fossils, Wild Nothing and Minks.
