]]> Toronto based Shallow Waves is a dark alternative, post punk, noise group with heavy industrial influences. Their most recent effort displays a marked diversion from their original iteration as an alternative, 60s garage rock act, as Shallow Waves have taken a cue from contemporary bands like Metz, Idles, Girl Band, and Toronto’s underground music scene.

Emerging from a cocoon of noise as heavy shoegaze darlings, Shallow Waves have an upcoming EP called “Echoes Of A Collapse” and the lead single + vid “Degradation” on New York based Label Green Witch Recordings. It is our debut release with them and they are incredibly excited for it. Pay attention to their social media as well as on  https://www.instagram.com/greenwitchrecordings/ as release information on the EP should be out soon!
