New LP - Various Artists - Welcome Home/Diggin The Universe - There's no description from Woodsist, but here's how Glenn Donaldson of
Jewelled Antler summed it up:
"It's true--the sons and daughters of Homestead, Xpressway and first-wave
Drag City (et al.) are now making good music. The '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and '00s
are all there, bound together by shitty tape machines, reverb and easy chord
changes, but melody is back and so is the joy of jamming a perfectly mangled
pop song. Welcome Home might hit some new kids the way Human Music or
Nuggets did back in their day. In any case, it's one of those rare compilations you
can play straight through and over again."
He hit the nail on the head. If you have been into the previous releases on
Woodsist or have had a peripheral interest, but haven’t taken the plunge yet, this
record is for you. The bands included are Woods, Run DMT, White Fence, The
Fresh and Onlys, The Mantles, Skygreen Leopards, Alex Bleeker, Moon Duo,
City Center, Cause Co-Motion, Art Museums, Nodzzz, and Ducktails. There's a
handful of covers (Moon Duo does Errol Dunkley and City Center does Grateful
Dead), but most are originals and are exclusive to this release. Classic Jeremy
Earl (Woods) artwork, to boot. A perfect comp for a lazy Sunday afternoon.
