Apart from the fact that “MV & EE” is slang for zero gravity and that they’ve been doing it consistently “better” with good vibes/jams they still WANT to give you more of the best of them. This is their “space homestead” and for good reason this wall of sound applied thru DIY sensibilities was recorded over the course of a year in 9 different studios, presenting as clearly as circumstances can permit, a living idea right here in the now of what it is all about. These are sonics in motion, the satiate plural perfect supply of the hunger unusual, the picturesque in sound. Grab a shuttle for your spectrasound furniture any time in any aeon and dig the volume of their trip.

Woods / Amps For Christ split 12″ out this spring on Shrimper Records.

“There has been a tradition going back to almost the begin of Shrimper of artists on the label collaborating with one another. From John Davis/Lou Barlow’s Folk Implosion to Franklin Bruno & John Darnielle’s Extra G/Lens with dozens of other examples in between. This Split LP between WOODS & AMPS FOR CHRIST began as a kernel for a split 7″ single but grew into this full length split LP featuring 4 songs by each artist and an additional collaborative track. Woods & Amps for Christ explore a lot of the same land mass as one another, but manage to turn over different rocks & shards of glass. Working independently from one another, you will hear the sublime manner in which the 2 sides of the LP (or the harsh tinny digital skree of the MP3’s for you 20th century types, dig your irony) complement one another both musically & lyrically. Check out the ESP interplay of Barnes & Earl when together or separated by coasts.”- Shrimper

“Fuck Nostalgia. Live the truth. Truth is feeling, Truth is sound, Truth is motion. I am believing. I am seeing. I am moving. TRUTH IS FOREVER. Meet The Presley/ White Fence Truth Serum. Imagine if you will, that your uncle frank, aunt jane and cousing ricky all made out with George Harrison at the same time and felt good about it. Thats what the family perfume smells like. Like the real shit. This aint your regular mutton chop rock. This is freak your fucking mom out cause she caught you naked in the back yard blasting this shit rock. This is not a joke. This is the hit factory. This is the eye. This is another planet. And hurry up, cause this perfume aint available at no macy’s. Fuck the Rolling stones. Long live Keith. Were allready dead. SMELL THE TRUTH. FUCK THE TRUTH. FUCK ROCK AND ROLL. LOVE ROCK AND ROLL. And this is just vol. one.”- Ty Segall

White Fence – It Will Never Be by WOODSIST

In celebration of this momentous occasion we made some new Woodsist merch – shirts! totes! cozy sweatshirts! And to make things even more all right, we have just released The Doozer’s “Keep It Together” LP and Golden Calves 2 x LP reissue (James Toth and co., pre-Wooden Wand). Welcome to the new site.

“starting this coming sunday january 8th we begin our residency at zebulon in brooklyn. 3 consecutive sundays and three sets nightly beginning after 9 pm. acoustic / electric / beyond, in the good ol’ abe order with the home comfort wing of the golden road in tow. all these zebulon shows are FREE. for this coming sunday we’ll be joined by rongoose and smokehound along with special guest steve gunn sittin’ in with us for the environmental “beyond” set. expect some other surprises as well.

on sunday the 15th “high lodge”, which is my new project with jeremy “woods” earl, will handle the beyond set. we’ve been cuttin’ wood in the shed for the past coupla years and we’re ready to burn. expect an LP from that unit in future wave as well. special surprises that night will have good ol’ jer doing triple duty (3 times the fun) sitting in on traps and various possessions for the acoustic/electric sets and herbcraft providing the low end theory. should be wild papers.

on sunday the 22nd our great, groovy old friend and tapenaut P.G. Six will provide a set of his own in the evening as well as sitting in with erika and I for some numbers. who knows what kinda transmissions from the sensual field that might bring.

mos def hope to see everyone more than once in the tapers pit…tapers are welcome.”- MV
