With most of todays rock music dissolving into an undifferentiated signal of heavy distortion and tired pop formulas, it takes something unusual to inspire music fans. When something original comes along, its sure to get noticed. Thats why the word has been spreading about A Novel Forms unique sound.
Since the bands inception in February 2005, its members have set out to create meaningful, quality music with real emotion behind it. Refusing to settle for the ordinary, the foursome developed a new style characterized by tight, intricate melodies, pretty vocals, and unusual rhythms.
It didnt take long for people to take notice. Their frequent shows have quickly made them local heroes, and online fans from across the country as well as Europe and Japan have begged them to come play their cities. The band has captured the interest of several national acts including Thursday, The Honorary Title, The Format, and Kind of Like Spitting.
In December 2005, A Novel Form celebrated the release of its anticipated debut EP, Pictures. After months of careful scrutinizing in the studio, the band delivered the album into the hands of excited fans and reviewers. J. Adrian Stanley of The Gazette described its net effect as fluttering sonic waves that leave you feeling lovesick and prone to daydreaming. In February, the album was already getting heavy play on college radio stations throughout America. In the words of reviewer Kara Luger, Pictures is a small snippet of great things to come.
Currently, A Novel Form is in the process of planning tours in support of Pictures. A mountain states regional tour is slated for April, with a summer west coast tour following close behind. In the meantime, they will continue to write new music and play local shows. Listen in and find out what all the buzz is
