    Perennial is yet another step forward for Woods, a band that continues to get stronger as their music becomes gentler and more graceful.

    The real highlights for Woods this go around are the four instrumental efforts that each have a distinct vibe yet are linked spiritually. Rather than acting as placeholders they take root as distinct works.

    Organic, evergreen loveliness. [Oct 2023, p.88]

    With 11 tracks at 44 minutes, it feels more affirmed and settled, neither breaking fresh ground nor uncritically repeating past ideas.

    Perennial is an easy-flowing new collection of songs, including a number of dynamic instrumentals, which showcase the chemistry among the players.

    The abundance of dreamy, placid wonders like "Between The Past" and the instrumental "White Wonder Melody" doesn't entirely negate one's longing for more of the ferocious, Ira Kaplan-worthy shredding that fills the final moments of "Another Dream" or other touches that add a wobblier, woozier feel to the proceedings. [Oct 2023, p.37]
