Cherry-Red Eco-mix Vinyl
An album called "Roses" would be concerned with romantic gestures. Across the ten tracks that make up the seventh and newest Widowspeak record, intimate spaces and stages of love are captured with a nostalgic, vaseline-coated lens. If music can simultaneously be naturalistic and noir, saturated and lush, that is Widowspeak. They're a band that knows how to set a scene. These songs use intimate moments to talk about deeper heartaches: the restlessness inherent in modern existence, waiting around for something to happen. Or, feeling at odds with playing a role in your own life. "Roses" might be the most romantic Widowspeak record, but it's also the most deeply realist: the stage is set not with dramatic overtures but the backdrop of the minutiae and repetition of daily acts. Maybe time has given Widowspeak the ability to grow slowly; "Roses" is unpruned and more beautiful for it; left a little wild as it stretches its new growth in all directions.
