True Widow - As High as the Highest Heavens and From the Center to the Circumference of the Earth

Review by Tom Perry

There are a few moments on this album where True Widow get it so right musically, you'll probably find yourself air-punching in simple appreciation.»

recent kemado signees true widow release their elaborately titled new album, 'as high as the highest heavens and from the center to the circumference of the earth'. following on from their superb 2008 debut, the dallas-based trio joins kemado's burgeoning roster of exciting heavy music, which also includes the sword, saviours and xasthur. over the past two decades, we've been bombarded with grunge, with shoegaze, with sludge, with doom metal, with post-rock, with slow-core, with all these examples of loud rock music that reach towards one extreme or another. the sole intent of this seems to be to bludgeon the listener into accepting what they conceive to be a 'total sound,' one which makes their effort more valid than the others around it, and by association, worthy of your reverence.
