What you see above is the artwork for Remorsecapade, the new Woodhands album. I know it may still be too early in the year to say this, but I think this is the best album art of the year. I am comfortable with that statement.

I have given the album a once over and it isn’t really my cup of tea. I wasn’t familiar with Woodhands prior to this and my initial thought was that it sounds like Dan Deacon mixin it up with Les Savy Fav. While I don’t have a problem with either of these, the fusion of sounds and their combined energy is a bit too much for me. Maybe I am just old and it was a quick listen, so don’t put too much value in my judgment of the album, I just really liked the artwork.

I also really like how Paper Bag Records describes them:

a synth and drums duo that’s intent on injecting electro pop with a dose of emotional intensity and a generous portion of glam rock swagger.
