2019 release from the alt-rock band. Widow's Weeds, produced by Butch Vig, is the fifth studio album from Silversun Pickups. For their first studio album since 2015, these L.A. alt-rockers teamed with Vig to create a lean, driving sound that's still steeped in sweeping drama and stark dynamic shifts. The lead single "It Doesn't Matter Why" joins "Neon Wound," "Don't Know Yet," "Bag of Bones," "Straw Man," the title track and more.
