    Young Widows - Old Wounds (2008)

    Ok. First off, I'm now in the writing mood, so deal with it. Secondly, if you don't know of this band...I'm sorry. Louisville, Kentucky has and always will be one of my favorite music scenes in this country. They have forever taken the music we love, whether its hardcore (By The Grace Of God, Endpoint, The National Acrobat, Coliseum and more recently Xerxes and Mountain Asleep) or folk music (the amazing and brilliant Will Oldham of Bonnie "Prince" Billy fame) and have put their own flavor into it. Just a little off the beaten path.

    Young Widows is no different. The underground music world was shaken greatly when Breather Resist called it quits, but out of the ashes of that we were given these remarkable young men. I like to think of Young Widows as Breather Resist, but something more. It's got the same vibe but the artistic aspects are pushed to the limit. Distorted, crunchy guitar tones and reverb soaked vocals and almost tribal like heavy drumming. Much like Torche but without the pop aspects. If you aren't already a fan of Young Widows, jump on board, you are in for one hell of a ride.
