The Forms have announced that their long-awaited sophomore full-length will be self-titled and released on October 23 via their own label, Threespheres.
The Forms follows up the band's critically acclaimed 2003 debut, Icarus, which received an 8.7/10 from this site and an 8.5 from indie tastemakers Pitchfork Media.
The album is described by their press release as "30 minutes of driving, ethereal yet angular uniqueness that evokes the classic Dischord roster of Shudder to Think and Fugazi, set in a more accessible pop context."
