About

There is more than one artist called Shapes: 1. SHAPES are a 3 piece math-rock/post-hardcore band from Birmingham, UK. They released their debut EP Get Your Learn On in 2008 with Godmonkey Recordings then signed to Big Scary Monsters to release The Pasture, The Oil in 2009 and Monotony Chic in 2011. 2. Shapes (UK) are a four piece Indie band hailing from Luton. Since their first gig back in April 2007, Jamie mack (Vocals), Matt Rushton (Guitar), Pete Cordt (Bass) and Brendan Monahan (Drums) have been playing out their razor-blade stuff-strutting angularity to mean effect. A session at the end of March 2008 at the legendary Maida Vale studio for BBC Radio 1 saw Shapes join forces with Scottish Tony, the man who discovered Mercury Prize Nominee Electric Soft Parade, and tour manager Mike McCarthy. 3. "The Shapes" hailed from Leamington Spa in the Midlands. They formed in 1977, but it was not until they released their Part Of The Furniture EP on Sofa Records in 1979 that they came to national attention with a session for John Peel on BBC Radio One. They played numerous gigs, including with The Killjoys, The Cure and The Fall. They released a second single in 1980 "Airline Disaster/Blast" Off on Belfast's Good Vibrations label. In 1998 Overground Records released a compilation CD Songs For Sensible People. Currently The Shapes have a track on Messthetics # 103 released by Hyped2Death records in the U.S. 4. An alias of alternative artist Will Page based in Kent, experimenting in more ambient and electronic soundscapes. Songs frequently freature drum loops and synth lines rather than guitar/rock-based melodies of other projects. In 2007 several tracks from emerged online from a limited-press self-titled EP including "Wake Up" which was a minor hit locally. 5.
