Strange Shapes - Slow Sound/Mild Doubt (2011)

Bandcamp

9.0

/Alternative pop/rock, Art rock, Jangle pop, Indie rock/

Comment: mere 2 track-single by a quartet of Brooklynites. Especially the first of them, Slow Sound, is greatly bound up in harmony process and bubblegum cadences. These singles are surrounded by a touch somehow reminiscent of the aesthetics of the 70`s English new wave/art rock/post-punk bands (Echo & Bunnymen; Durutti Column, Teardrop Explodes). Somehow nostalgic and permanently elegant in its path. By the way, these notches were firstly recorded for the Japanese version of their EP.
