Description:

LINDA SMITH, a lo-fi home-recorded girl in the midst of a re-evaluation, was selected for EFFICIENT SPACE's popular "SKY GIRL" compilation and released in an anthology on CAPTURED TRACKS. The band that started her career, THE WOODS, has released a compilation on DOT MATRIX RECORDINGS that includes a single from 1985, plus an album's worth of previously unreleased material. The compilation includes a single from 1985 by THE WOODS, the band from which her career began, plus an album's worth of previously unreleased material, and is being released on LP on the DOT MATRIX RECORDINGS label. The organic and experimental fusion of melodic sense and harmony derived from 70's British folk music and drone minimalism reminiscent of THE VELVET UNDERGROUND is a symbol of the New York underground of the 80's. The music is as attractive as SONIC YOUTH, LYDIA LUNCH, and LAURIE ANDERSON. The musicality of the band is so appealing that it can be likened to "THE ASSOCIATION and THEVELVET UNDERGROUND existing in the same space. It is a wonderful compilation album that includes songs written for a full-length album that never came to fruition, and in a sense is a fantastic compilation album that is a fantastic first album.
