What their label says...

WOODS BEGAN IN THE WOODS, AT THE FOOT OF BEAR MOUNTAIN. IN THE EARLIEST DAYS IT WAS A COLLABORATIVE IMPROVISATIONAL GROUP WITH TWO CORE MEMBERS AND SEVERAL GUESTS, KNOWN AS ‘WOODSISTS.’ SHORTLY THEREAFTER, JEREMY EARL AND CHRISTIAN DEROECK EMERGED FROM THE WOODS, DUSTED THEMSELVES OFF, AND BEGAN TO WALK UPRIGHT. THE TWO WOODSISTS IMMERSED THEMSELVES IN HUMAN CULTURE, LEARNED TO CRAFT A MELODY, TO WIELD A TAMBOURINE, TO CONSTRUCT A CRUDE PHONOGRAPH FROM SPARE BICYCLE PARTS. THEY LEARNED THE VALUE OF A CASSETTE. EARL AND DEROECK RETURNED TO THE WOODS AND SHARED THEIR NEWFOUND KNOWLEDGE WITH THE OTHER WOODSISTS. AT REAR HOUSE IS THE RESULT, SONGS AND IMPROVISATIONS BY OUTSIDERS, INSPIRED BY THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
