The superb second album from Trees Speak, 'Shadow Forms', is a blend of electronic instruments and motoric 1970s Krautrock (think Harmonia, Can, Cluster, Popol Vuh, Neu!), haunting and powerful 1960s and 1970s soundtracks (think Italian prog-rock Goblin and John Carpenter's horror films, Morricone and John Barry's existential spy films), as well as New York no wave electronic tinkering with synthesizers and analog guitars (think Suicide, everything on Soul Jazz's New York Noise series, or Eno's New York No Wave)! Trees Speak brings all these elements together in "Shadow Forms", the follow-up to their critically acclaimed debut album "Ohms", released on Soul Jazz Records.
