Tonight @ SPACE: The Impossible Shapes

From SPACE Gallery: Indiana's The Impossible Shapes are on tour supporting their recently released self-titled album recorded on "extra sticky analog tape." Having grown up only a few short hours from Dayton, Ohio, Guided By Voices, the Breeders and Swearing at Motorists are obvious influences. A true ensemble band with revolving instrumental duties, the band features members of John Wilkes Booze and Songs: Ohia. Portland native Robert Stillman returns from his studies in London and Pepi Ginsberg makes the trek from Brooklyn to make this lineup one to remember.

If you would like to listen to The Impossible Shapes before checking out tonight's show, go to their media page and download all their free MP3s. There's quite a few of them and all of them are really good.

After giving a week's worth of listening to these guys, I'm becoming a fan. The Impossible Shapes play well-crafted psych folk-pop, if that means anything to you. People in the past have compared them to Elephant Six bands and I think rightfully so.

The Impossible Shapes play at SPACE Gallery at 9PM. Hope to see you there!
