Square Shells is a limited edition EP by American indie rock musician Kurt Vile, released on May 24, 2010 on Matador Records.

[2] Regarding the track, "Losing Momentum (for Jim Jarmusch)", which references filmmaker Jim Jarmusch in its title, Kurt Vile noted: "I have an early EP my buddy Richie put out, called The Hunchback EP, and there's a song called "Losing It" on there.

That's the same reason you cover "The Monkey" by Dim Stars, which is Thurston Moore and Richard Hell.

"[3] Pitchfork's David Bevan gave the EP a positive review, stating: "With seven beautifully sequenced songs in 27 minutes, it's more substantial than your traditional stopgap, with more to explore.

[...] It's a satisfying EP that leaves open the question of where Vile's music might go next.
