The DC/Chicago/Louisville connection has been long-standing triangle of similar ideas, ethics and sounds, and Young Widows keep that spirit alive.
Young Widows have created catchy music that is as aggravating as it is inspiring. From the almost monotonous lo-fi vocals and the strangely inventive guitar work, to the pounding lock-groove bass and drum perfection. They've found themselves in a new world of dark, hypnotic grooves and moody post-punk songs that leave the listener numb and digging for more. New record out August 2008.
