Shop Vinyl and CDs and complete your Polvo collection. It takes a while to "get" this album. I initially despised it except for . but after a few listens I began to really enjoy Enemy Insects, Rock Post Rock and El Rocio. It's not exactly like their earlier work but still really damn good.
Shapes is Polvo's fourth studio album and their last till 2009. It was recorded by Bob Weston and released on Touch and Go Records in 1997. Pearson Greer of Opus called the band polarizing, writing that there's "tons of odd time signatures, skronky guitar and bass tones, synth squiggles, solos, and other esoterica that’s straight from prog rock" on the album.

Polvo are a noise rock band from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, formed in the year 1990. Their initial lineup includes guitarist/vocalists Ash Bowie and Dave Brylawski, bassist Steve Popson and drummer Eddie Watkins. Their first release was Cor-Crane Secret, which doesn’t show Polvo at their best, but it was a good introduction to their sound nonetheless. They followed that up with the classic 1993 release Today’s Active Lifestyles and garnered some critical acclaim in the process.
This album has an average beat per minute of 105 BPM (slowest/fastest tempos: 75/157 BPM). See its BPM profile at the bottom of the page.

Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist (Sample). There is an odd tension to the album and word has it the band wasn't getting along too well at the time. This does give it some disjointedness that you do not hear on any of the other Polvo albums, but at the same time makes it probably the most experimental of the lot too. There's moments of old Polvo, but it never fully comes to bloom but what does come out are hypnotic Indian influenced jams, bizarre 70s riff rock and probably the best Polvo instrumental track "El Rocio".
