SHAPERS - Virginia Reel by Whistler Records
On "Virginia Reel," the Chicago quartet marry Sonic Youth-esque noise with swirls of psychedelia that will satiate lovers of both melody and chaos.
Shapers features Zaid Maxwell (guitar/synths/vocals), Steve Reidell (guitar/bass), Amelia Styer (synths/vocals) and Todd Waters (drums/percussion).
“Very excited about what I am hearing from Chicago outfit, Shapers, who have sent over new songs from a 7″ — two spacey jams, a perfect triplet for the blazing Midwest sun and a cold micro-brew. Understated and mellow, these songs have more in common with ultimate DIYer R. Stevie Moore than most of today's musical landscape, a bold statement that is clearly working well for them.” —Weekly Tape Deck
