And just like that, the outside world gets frigid. I’m not talking sweater weather — I’m talking coat and scarf weather. I’m talking blasted-with-snow weather (WTF?!). It has me jonesing for hot chocolate and crackling fires and holiday cheer and the like, but since I haven’t been grocery shopping recently and I don’t have any firewood and Christmas is still a ways off, I guess I’ll settle for some of Woods’ campfire psych-folk. I’m down with flannel and beards.
They’ll be hitting the road in December to support their most recent album, Sun and Shade (TMT Review). According to collaborator Glenn Donaldson, “Woods [are] a two-headed dog asleep on the porch and a butterfly on the windowsill… a Janus, a Gemini & a screen door.” I’d say they’re a dreamier Fleet Foxes, but hey, whatever floats your boat.
