'No Shape' is the fourth album from Perfume Genius, also known as Mike Hadreas. It's described by Perfume Genius as "approaching beauty and warmth and joy, but there’s always something unsettling, bubbling below.” In comparison to earlier recordings though, the darker undercurrents are somewhat overshadowed by a prevailing mood of optimism, resilience, alongside moments of catharsis and elation. Artful electronic pop and rich orchestral sounds reach celebratory heights, and the record culminates in a tribute to Mike's long-term partner, 'Alan'.
