Young Widows rose from the end of Louisville hardcore band Breather Resist in 2006 with a darker, groove-heavy take on noise rock. Their debut Settle Down City wore its influences proudly, from the reverb-soaked tension of Fugazi and Hoover to the bass-and-drums lock perfected by The Jesus Lizard and Melvins.

Evan Patterson's inventive guitar work was hitting its stride, while Nick Thieneman and original drummer Geoff Paton laid down relentless, heavy grooves. Songs like the title track, "Glad He Ate Her" and "Small Talk" are tense, loud and brooding.

This 20th anniversary edition from Temporary Residence was remastered by James Plotkin (Khanate, Sunn O))), and the package was rebuilt from the original restored artwork. It adds a previously unreleased bonus song, "White Water," recorded during the original sessions. Pressed on limited opaque yellow color vinyl, it is the definitive version of the album that started Young Widows' two-decade run as one of noise rock's most compelling bands.

Unopened returns accepted within 30 days — you cover shipping.

If your record arrives damaged or folded (thanks, postal service), reach out ASAP so we can fix it.

After 30 days, it’s yours to keep forever.

Avoid extreme heat or sunlight. Definitely don’t let it mingle with any Justin Bieber records. Treat it like your grandma — gentle, respectful, and quiet during Murder, She Wrote.
