DOWNLOAD: The Forms - Steady Hand w/ Pattern Is Movement's Andrew Thibaldeux (MP3)
The Forms

The Forms, who we interviewed a few short months ago, have a double LP due on February 15th via Triple Down Records/Threespheres, with the CD coming through Ernest Jenning. Half of their release is their new Derealization EP which includes revisited/remixed works and features appearances from Matt Beringer (The National), Craig Wedren (Shudder To Think), as well as members of Pattern Is Movement, Dirty Projectors, St. Vincent and others.
The 2-disc set will also include the band's earlier Steve-Albini-produced opus, Icarus. Download "Steady Hand", a fresh look at "Bones" from Icarus above, and stream it below where you'll also find the full EP tracklist. EP opener "Fire to the Ground" with Matt Berninger has especially been stuck in my head since listening recently.
The Forms are scheduled to play NYC at Cameo Gallery on Saturday (12/18), one of a few dates that the band has on their schedule that includes a Boston date with The Dismemberment Plan. That Boston show is the day before The Dismemberment Plan plays to a sold-out Webster Hall in NYC twice (1/29 and 1/30).
The Dismemberment Plan have also added dates to their reunion tour which now includes three DC dates and a March one in Seattle.
All tour dates and some videos below...

I heard your next album would feature the harp, the flute, and a full kazoo section. Is this true?

There isn't a venue in NYC strong enough to contain the sheer awesomeness of a wicked farleys reunion

There is also not a falafel stand strong enough to contain the sheer awesomeness of this hummus platter I just whipped up.

3:53 I am sending the forms and payment for the delicious hummus platter. We ordered two, one for the band to eat and one to throw in Wayne Coyne's face.

They're just not as good without those twin dudes in the band.

The Forms used to be one of the best bands in NYC. They're still good, but their Knitting Factory show in August was slightly lackluster..

The Triple Down label has been putting out some awesome shit. It makes sense that The Forms would be working with them. Although I do prefer their original versions to the covers I've heard.

When I saw you guys at Union Hall back in 07, I thought you were really good but in need of a steel drum/accordion version of knowledge in hand. That addition really put you over the top.

Awesome harpsichord solos!

Perhaps a little bit of calculus? It was then said that thine henceforth was not only my own hummus, but children's sunglasses that absolutely do not protect me from thy sun's rays...in fact, I demand cancer. Also, I want to have relations with Carole King and that bitch from Fox And Friends.

I'm psyched! Love The Forms! I heard Scott Solter helped produce the EP. I love his work!
