On its ninth album, Woods returns to the familiar core of its musical influences: psychedelic, country, rock, folk. But there’s a twist on Sun City Eater in the River of Light.
The opening track, Sun City Creeps, adds an unmistakable reggae beat. Elsewhere, other world beats sneak into the patented Woods sound.
In the band’s press material, there’s admission that the band is “dabbling in zonked out Ethiopian jazz.”
This is another great album from a truly excellent band. It’s highly recommended.
Woods plays Lincoln Hall April 23.
