"The song 'Winter fell' came about during a 'polar vortex,'" singer Nathaniel Hoho tells Village Voice, who deems the tune "much warmer than its subject matter." It's a song about being forced to take a break, reflecting and coming to terms with one's inner demons, while simultaneously embracing the good things and people in life. Heralded by publications such as SPIN and Earmilk, Walking Shapes was formed by way of mountains, and through the tides of the city. Their fierce and eclectic debut Taka Come On channels their love to their home New York City. Featuring Nathaniel Hoho on vocals and guitar; ?Jesse Kotansky on guitar, violin, vocals?; Jake Generalli on keys, vocals; ?Dan Krysa on bass and vocals; and ?Christopher Heinz on drums, Walking Shapes meld driving guitars, intricate arrangements and visually evocative songwriting into stunning audio refractions on New York's sonic landscape.Pre-order the LP now on iTunes.
