Dispeller

COLOUR: Black   EXTRAS: N/A

Dispeller captures Woods' hometown of Lyttelton in a year-long recording session, with producer Ben Edwards, known for his work with Aldous Harding and Julia Jacklin. The intimate and experimental rock album features mangled tape machine interjections and collaborations with underground artists. Woods' melodies and vocals are reminiscent of Scott Walker and Gordon Gano, while the varied instrumentation draws influence from artists such as Fugazi and Grouper. Throughout the album, Woods' voice remains the emotional core, surrounded by the beauty and chaos of the music.
