The album was recorded and mixed by Julian Cue, who was also the recording engineer for 'Expressions of Interest' (2021). Defined by a kinetic energy, dynamic range and brooding atmosphere, the 10-track release comprises some tracks that were mainstays within the band's live shows - featuring in their US tour set-list - alongside others which were written later in the recording process. During the creation of 'Decent Shapes', the band also experimented with swapping instruments, allowing for different playing styles and song-writing approaches.
