Love Is Love is the 10th studio release from the psych folk band Woods and was written and recorded in the two months following the 2016 U.S. election. The six songs comprising Love Is Love chronicle the grief, disbelief, and bitterness of the Trump Presidency, and Woods proposes that the way to fight back is with love. Woods continues the sonic explorations of their excellent last album City Sun Eater In The River Of Light, drawing again upon jazz, world music, and 60’s jam band vibes. Highlights include: the anthemic title track; the catchy “Bleeding Blue”; the foreboding “Lost In A Crowd”; and the 10-minute instrumental “Spring Is In The Air.” If you’re feeling the Trump doldrums as many of us do, then catchy grooves on Love is Love may help you cope. – Written by JFelton
