Woods are on Woodsist Records, the NYC-based label that has also recently issued records by Vivian Girls, Wavves, Crystal Stilts, and Sic Alps. But unlike those groups, they focus on a more pastoral and rustic vein of songcraft rather than loft-ready noise. Here on their latest full-length, their music evokes any number of their lo-fi ancestors, from early Guided by Voices to the murkier depths of the Siltbreeze or Flying Nun back catalogs. But Woods are able to retain their own immediately recognizable off-kilter character, with music that's private and homespun but also accessible and immediately enjoyable.
