One of the more accomplished members of a growing school of bands too young to remember firsthand the Big Black/Jesus Lizard movement of noise-rock, but happy to reimagine it, the Louisville, Ky., trio Young Widows has grown more austere with each record. Their 2008 sophomore album, Old Wounds, tempered some of the jumpiness of their 2006 debut, Settle Down City, and their new In and Out of Youth and Lightness is their most restrained yet, a record that conveys its edginess through unsettled guitars and stern, lowered voices rather than sheer volume.
Young Widows w/ My Disco, Sweet Cobra and SIVINI
