songs of shame

I've already mentioned how much I love Woods' latest Captured Tracks 7" -- the b-side in particular -- and the band's stellar new full-length, Songs of Shame, is more of the same simple, breezy, and consistently awesome lo-fi pop (the label calls it road worn/windblown "skeletal psychedelia"). Highlights include the group's killer Graham Nash cover, and the fuzzy, pensively sad backwoods psych-folk ballad "Rain On":
mp3:
woods :: rain on
Songs of Shame comes out April 14 on Woodsist. You can also purchase their 7" here; in case you missed this one the first time around:
mp3:
woods :: the dark

if you live in NYC/BK you can probably already snag a copy of songs of shame on vinyl. i got it at permanent in greenpoint last friday.
were the hell were you when this band was releasing albums years ago?
i was probably right here, mostly
i first heard of 'At Rear House' from Chris, years ago. and the new Woods is badass.
@ alan: wHere the hell were YOU!?
@chris:
i like this band, but they sound like muppets singing to me. anyone else getting that?
yeah i was thinking Fraggle Rock, actually. pretty sweet.
Loving the new album Chris, check out the 'Some Shame' tour-only cassette if you haven't already.
