Young Widows are a Louisville, Kentucky-based band whose sound has evolved from angular post-hardcore to moody, atmospheric rock influenced by post-punk and gothic folk. The group was founded in 2006 by former members of post-hardcore group Breather Resist, and their debut album, Settle Down City, maintained elements of that group's sound, but was less metallic and closer to noise-rock groups like the Jesus Lizard and Shellac. The group continued to refine their sound, gradually slowing down and spacing out while maintaining a sense of brooding aggression on subsequent albums like 2011's In and Out of Youth and Lightness and 2014's Easy Pain. Power Sucker, their first full-length in over a decade, arrived in 2025.
