...according to our Brett on 20 August 2009.

The lead tune on the Woods 7" hits the ground running with a fucking crazy guitar solo then morphs into a vaguely country-ish singalonga lo-fi tune of high goodness before lifting back off with a solo outro. It's called 'To Clean' and it's one of the best tunes on the album, so say Brian and Miss Business (the lady and the tramp innit). 'Rain On' is on the album too but the one on here is a live version.. It's kind of hard to say whether there's actually much point to this Half Machine 7" but taken on its own terms you certainly can't complain about the music on show.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

“Consistently awesome lo-fi pop” – Gorilla vs Bear

“A distinctive blend of spooky campfire folk, lo-fi rock, homemade tape collages, and other noisy interludes, all anchored by deceptively sturdy melodies.” – Pitchfork

“Folksy, psychedelic rockers that are too good for their lo-fi branding” - Ohmpark

WOODS are set to release their debut UK single on Half Machine Records on Monday 17th August 2009. The lo-fi Flying Nun-esque, ‘To Clean’, backed with the skeletal psych folk of exclusive acoustic version, ‘Rain On’, recorded live on WVKR radio.

Both tracks feature on their recently released fourth album, ‘Songs of Shame’, released through their own Woodsist label and cassette tape label Shrimper.

WOODS are primarily the duo of Jeremy Earl (owner of Fuck It Tapes and Woodsist) and Jarvis Taveniere (Meneguar and Wooden Wand), and aided live by friends G. Lucas Crane on tape effects and Kevin Morby.

Jeremy’s Brooklyn based label, Woodsist, has recently released Vivian Girls, Wavves, Kurt Vile, Sic Alps and Crystal Stilts, among many others.
