Haunt the Woods

In the deepest reaches of the English countryside there is a sublime sound that emanates from the landscape and its name is Haunt the Woods. Timely but curiously timeless, you’d never guess that this youthful quartet could so confidently make no accord with genre and yet here they are, and their rich musical vocabulary spans decades and worlds. Recently signed to Spinefarm / Universal, it won’t be long before you’re hearing more from these musical mavericks and with good reason. Formed between Plymouth, Devon and Cornwall in 2016 and commanders of a legion-like local following, Haunt the Woods deftly interweave alt rock, folk, prog and pop with an epic level of pomp and poetic elegance that suggests a far longer tenure than their young years suggest. With a tip of the hat to Queen and Muse here, Jeff Buckley or Radiohead at their OK Computer best there and with a sprinkled-in tinge of Beatles-loving pop sensibility, they have a rare ability to conjure legacy while creating a bold sound that is completely their own: masterfully layered, gleefully out of step with the demands of fashion and creatively informed by literature and the landscape.
