True Widow’s New Album, “Circumambulation,” Streaming Now via Pitchfork Advance
July 16, 2013, Philadelphia – True Widow’s forthcoming album, Circumambulation (July 23, Relapse Records), is now streaming in its entirety via Pitchfork Advance (http://pitchfork.com/advance/163-circumambulation/).
The album, which once again reunites the Dallas-based trio with producer Matt Pence (Yuck, Jay Farrar), was described by NPR as “hyponotic,” with Alternative Press saying Circumambulation “is wrapped in spidery melody, reverb-haunted twang and plodding, almost processional rhythms.”
“I’ve always considered us a simple band but these songs seem even more boiled down,” explained singer/guitar player DH Phillips when news of the release was announced in April. “I’d say the pace is a little different as well. Things are a bit more upbeat.”
True Widow will join Chelsea Wolfe for a full national tour this September (dates below). The band perform an Aug. 7 hometown show at Club Dada in Dallas and recently confirmed a spot on Austin’s Fun Fun Fun Fest this fall.
Pre-order packages for Circumambulation are available on CD/LP/Digital via the Relapse webstore: http://bit.ly/TrueWidow. A free mp3 download of “Four Teeth” is being offered by Relapse as well (http://www.relapse.com/tw/index.html).
