Bad Shapes was a Philadelphia-based DIY rock band formed in 2018. Drawing influence from the experimental inventiveness of post-punk and the atmospheric elements of post-rock, Bad Shapes’ music seeks always to create commonality between discomfort and discovery. The result is a cohesiveness found between heavily effected guitars that shimmer and surge over driving rhythmic foundations, modulated synths that bounce and bend, and found-audio samples carefully deployed both in earnest and irony. Bad Shapes has described themselves as “The AV Club of Bands,” with a light show that mixes live video synthesis, oscilloscope, and glitched-out imagery to ensure that every performance is a unique audio/visual spectacle.
