Triángulo de Amor Bizarro have presented their new era in Madrid in an event organized at the Sala Equis. And I say “era”, not just “disco”, because the group premieres on Sonido Muchacho (Carolina Durante, Sen Senra, Depression sonido).
The trio played 5 new songs with their visuals as a short, talked about the freedom with which they have worked on this album after a couple of more conceptual projects and explained how the feeling of “space” has been worked on. Capture the “room” where they recorded, their particular “cathedral.”
Rodrigo joked about making 10 albums as Felt: “Three, three and three and one goodbye.” In any case, this is the 7th: «We have tried to restart the format, there are 3 of us for the first time. We are considering a very artisanal album, very much against all the ultra-dodgy technological stuff out there, not much of a computer or anything. We spent a lot of time, we spent months, actually years, composing. In our house, there is a studio, but it is our house. It is an album of bass, guitar, drums and arrangements. A record like they were made back in the day when records were the top of the food chain. It is the album to which we have dedicated the most time to making the songs.
Today the first single, ‘Sacrificio’, was uploaded to platforms and it is our Song of the Day. They defined it as the “direct song” that usually comes out when they already have the rest of the album done and defined. It is certainly one of his most repetitive and pop compositions, with a first cousin melody not so much from New Order as from the Cure of ‘Friday I’m In Love’.
Appealing to “sisters in darkness” and “sisters of darkness”, its chorus emphasizes the idea of ”doing what I can but nothing more.” “Death is a gesture, I surrender my will,” says the text above the song’s title. “My beach is my sacrifice” is the last phrase of the song and also of the album, since ‘Sacrificio’ closes the entire sequence.
The official theme of the song is “Galicia as a landscape, as tension, as a myth”, and also “its meigas: ambivalent figures (healers, fortune tellers, guardians of rituals) who exist just at the point where reason no longer prevails.”
Regarding the “silver pond” of the lyrics, the stamp indicates: “It is not a traditional postcard, but an imaginary of ancient power put to work within a contemporary song: spirituality without catechism, mystery without morality.”
