If you are a fan of Hayden, Beck, The Eels, or other lo-fi popsters, you will for sure love Woody Whatever. They have an infectious pop sound that derives from acoustic guitars, drum machines, and dueling harmonies. This 11 song record is raw and full of emotions. From the upbeat opener “Drive An Uncle Through Mountains” to the Red House Painters-esque “I Booked A Flight”, these guys have a good variety to their music. The record doesn’t get dull with songs that blend together; each song has its own identity. Standouts here are “I Was Afraid” and “Stephani”, but really, all the songs are pretty solid. I highly recommend this one. If you’re interested, you can actually get this from Amazon.com. (Eddie Fleisher)
