On Dispeller, Ben Woods's beguiling new album, his intimate experiments in rock paint a vivid portrait. Here, the New Zealand artist leans comfortably into intuition and abstraction. Expansive arrangements are anchored by heavy-lidded prose, while carrying the air of the portside shack it was made in.

On fragile duet InchWearing DivineInch, Lucy Hunter (Opposite S*x / Wet Specimen) threatens to steal the limelight, before a full hive of Marlon Williams's honeyed vibrato comes spluttering out of what sounds like a rusted can. Woods's melodies bring to mind Scott Walker's dramatic tunefulness, while his voice holds something of Gordon Gano's waver, pushed through New Zealand vowel mangling.
