Album Notes & Community Reviews

Drawing heavily upon the slasher film aesthetic of John Carpenter, 'The Shape' delivers an aggressively energetic iteration of darksynth. The Californian duo prominently features heavily distorted electric guitars alongside relentless, retro-futuristic sequencer patterns to emulate 1980s horror soundtracks.
