Lima Shakes have been creating a buzz in the indie rock scene with their mix of childhood mateship and musical chemistry. They are back with their long-awaited second single, "How I Feel." After their release, "One More Time," the band unfolds a musical, emotional roller coaster, dealing with the consequences of feelings that are never spoken and the difficulty of wanting and not being able to decide what.
In "How I Feel," Lima Shakes explores the tenuous teetering between longing and uncertainty, the confusion and openness that so many of us harbor when our feelings seem too much or too muddled to articulate. The song is the perfect example of what makes Lima Shakes one that echoes the timeless energy of rock with a wow twist.
This sound, which carries traces of the iconic bands, highlights the ease with which they embrace the rebellious nature of living the turbulent journey within themselves. From the swirling guitars to the locked-in rhythm section, the track creates an aural backdrop representing an internal fight of wanting to take firm action but knowing through some deep intuition that a clear decision just can't be made right now.
Founded by Alessandro Ambrosini and Alonso Suárez after they relocated from Lima, Peru, to Madrid, Peru, Shakes has always been about connection, personal and musical. The band was later joined by drummer Bruno Stac, and they clearly have an exciting and timeless sound. "How I Feel" shows that they're only getting started on their musical adventure.
The single is part of an ongoing release series that will continue into 2025, so there's more to come from the band in the months ahead. Lima Shakes might not have all the answers to how they feel, but with this track, they definitely have us feeling something real.
