Arizona-based group Trees Speak's second release of 2020 is more focused and concise than previous album Ohms or their sprawling 2017 debut. While maintaining the cinematic qualities that made their work so alluring, Shadow Forms is far less fragmentary, and the individual tracks seem more fleshed out. "Large Array" is a glimmering five-minute opening scene consisting of swift yet spacy synth arpeggios that lifts spirits and builds anticipation for what's to come. From there, the group construct tracks that explore styles ranging from Spaghetti Western scores to no wave without seeming like a pastiche. "Tear Kisser" is a tantalizing bit of spy jazz exotica with Mellotrons and tinges of fuzz guitar, later becoming permeated by dub effects and snaking trumpets. "Those Who Know" has a pure motorik rhythm, but with guitars that seem informed by both surf rock and suspenseful horror soundtracks. The spooky oscillations of "False Ego" would feel entirely at home on a Ghost Box release, and the scrambled transmissions, worn-out tape reels, and crisp acoustic guitar melodies of "Communication" similarly produce an effect that's both haunting and warmly nostalgic. The album surprisingly gets darker the deeper it goes, from the ominous waves and possessed operatic vocals of "Agonize Signal" to the prowling pulsations and swarming horns of "Magick Knives." Mini-epic "Shadow Forms" concludes the record, starting out with a dazzling drift of synths before dissolving into wayward horns, and then becoming carried away by hard, industrial-esque sequencers. Seemingly less based in improvisation than Trees Speak's first two albums, Shadow Forms feels like a definite step up for the band.
