Hard
Rock/Stoner/sludge quartets, Widows are a pulverizing juggernaut of deadly
riffage drenched with impressions of Entombed, Black Sabbath, Motorhead, Down, and Eyehategod.
Having spent several years laying waste to any venue that would have them, the
band have made friends in high places; scoring stunning reviews and features in
Metal Hammer, Terrorizer, Rock Sound and more importantly on this very site
Following
on from the storming success of their third studio release, 2017’s “Oh
Deer God”, Widows are back with
their flattening new two-track EP “Ten’Yer” marking the final studio
release with long time drummer Ze-Big and the first outings for new drummer
Adam Sharrocks at their launch shows in February 2019.
Widows had this to say about
their new release. “After a relatively quiet 2018, we’re glad to be back
with these new tracks and excited to get them in your faces live! We are also
stoked to be finally working with APF Records on the release too, the label has
done a lot for the scene since it started up and we’re really happy we’re now a
part of that.
“Ten’Yer” is a bit of a progression
on what we did with “Oh Deer God” and
expands on the nastiness on that record. There’s still that same vibe there but
the focus was on trying to make it darker and more aggressive than “ODG” on all fronts. If you liked the
last record, you’ll love what we’ve got in store for you come January 28th!”
