Widows are DEFINITELY here to rock our faces off and bringing an unacknowledged hardcore element to the table serves to set them apart and mark them as anything BUT another generic knock-off stoner band" - Paul Robertson www.sleepingshaman.com"
Widows are a great example of the band that is being created as the gap between Hardcore and Stoner gets ever smaller." - Enos www.theebigblack.com"
"This Nottingham-based band means business and are not content with merely churning out another slab of typical 70's styled riff rock played with extra fuzz in order to sound heavy." www.doommantia.com
"A must for any self respecting fan of stoner metal". www.TheeBigBlack.com
The band, its members, label, rehearsal studios, recording studio, producers, and artist/CD package designer are all from Nottingham. "This album is as much about us doing our thing and making a name for ourselves as it is representing Nottingham and helping to show what this city is capable of musically and artistically."
