true widow kicked of their first european tour last thursday, and we got to see them yesterday at the 4ad club in Diksmuide. unfamiliar with the band before, it was a very nice surprise: a tight mix of stoner-doom sounds, with plenty of refences to the slowcore and shoegaze-area, early Codeine in particular.
they’re around for two more weeks, with plenty of shows in the uk, belgium/netherlands/germany. highly recommended.
and if you can’t see them live: the new record As High As the Highest Heavens and From the Center to the Circumference of the Earth turned out to be excellent to listen to early in the morning, but i can easily imagine listening to it for the rest of the day.
