V/a / Welcome Home / Diggin’ The Universe

Woodsist

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. --Glenn Donaldson  All tracks (excepting WHITE FENCE’s “The Love Between”) are exclusive to this release.
