“Harsh Realm”
from the single Harsh Realm/Burnout
2011
iTunes

Simmering shoegaze number from NYC trio Widowspeak fronted by Molly Hamilton, who does a pleasing turn of Hope Sandoval-inspired vocals. This A-side number taken from their recent Captured Tracks 7″ single slips neatly into gloomy, light reverb blues and manages to outshine the swooning mid-tempo pop of flipside track “Burnout.”
