Woods: "Pushing Onlys"

On June 14th, the flora-friendly city-slickers of New York folk-rock quartet Woods will release their 6th full-length album, Sun & Shade, unto the world. Their first LP to be produced at Woodsist's rural headquarters in Warwick, NY, where Woods frontman and labelhead Jeremy Earl now resides, Sun & Shade was recorded between Winter 2010 and Winter 2011 with help from Glenn Donaldson of Skygreen Leapards and Art Museums, also of the Woodsist roster. Album single "Pushing Onlys," a bittersweet, pentatonic guitar-rock revery, has us feeling about as nostalgic as Jeremy Earl is waxing in the lyrics. Nostalgic for what, though? A quieter, greener life that we've never really lived? Bittersweet, pentatonic guitar rock from 2009/2010? So easy to feel, so hard to explain. --Emilie Friedlander, Altered Zones
