User Album Review
After eight albums of solid, if ever-more-predictable, psych-folk in about as many years, do Woods have anything new to offer? The band answers that question before anybody can ask it on City Sun Eater in the River of Light, which opens with the most surprising departure of their entire discography: “Sun City Creeps,” a detour into reggae and African jazz, complete with island horns, trebly guitars and the loose, first-take feel of an early Studio One session. An opener like that stirs real excitement, and the assurance that the band hasn’t grown complacent is particularly well-timed, coming as it does after 2014’s With Light and With Love, a characteristically enjoyable but familiar-on-arrival LP that left even many Woods loyalists longing for a shakeup. To be sure, City Sun Eater isn’t a complete reinvention, either—it’s largely rooted in the same '60s pop and druggy Americana that’s defined all the band's records—but periodic shadings of reggae give the record a character of its own.
