"Roses serves as Widowspeak's seventh album and their first in four years following 2022's The duo, comprised of married couple Molly Hamilton and Robert Earl Thomas, also welcomed their first child in between albums. The new project was inspired by the minutiae of daily life, the significance of the insignificant, and everyday rituals."
""If You Change," the band's first offering from Roses, is a lovely return to their signature wistful, dreamy indie rock. "Don't want mint condition," Hamilton sings, ruminating on her fear of change, "You're gonna get dragged in the dirt."
