The Woolen Men

The Woolen Men are a trio out of Portland, Oregon, who have made a name for themselves following a work ethic like that of groups like Black Flag and The Minutemen in their day: gig after gig, building up hours of rehearsals and live performances, and thousands of miles on the van. With an LP, a handful of singles and too many tours to count along with such bands as Crystal Stilts, Woods and The Fresh and Onlys, these three guys have become a band full of spontaneity along the lines of Dead Moon, Hüsker Dü, The Wipers and the kiwi bands from the Flying Nun label (The Clean, Tall Dwarfs, The Chills).
