Light and analog rendition of Bizarro Love Triangle

Until 2024 A bizarre love triangle I decided to celebrate my 20th anniversary with an unusual tour. At the beginning of each concert, the audience and the risk decide to follow a “taromantic” ritual in which all six released albums are played during the performance.

“It was crazy,” admits Rodrigo Caamaño, guitarist, voice and composer of the Galician band. “There were 60 or 70 songs. We really don’t shy away from thinking about it all. Finally, let’s stop rising for your impulses, which will force us to stop thinking that we need everything to be perfect. It worked very well, the audience got a very clean feeling. We also learn a lot about ourselves, how we have changed and what we have lost through the fireplace. It gave us a full picture of our career and opened a lot of doors for a new album.”

My cathedralwhich comes out in May, features several other drastic changes. Tras rotation of the front disc, SIT (2022), Zippo took the teclados and decided to leave the trainingwhich eventually turned into what seemed destined from the beginning: a triangle, composed of the two original members Caamaño and Isa Cea and complemented by the energetic drumming of Rafael Mallo, the master of rhythms.

“In some cases there have been refunds, the form of making music has completely changed,” assures Caamaño. “All because we’re a gang with no core until we’re all equal weight. I like to think that we are the result of the dissolution of each of our egos“.

Look for a step

The second coup occurred when they left the Mushroom Pillow in October 2025, according to the record always, apply for Sonido MuchachoCarolina Durante, Los Punsetes or Hinds saddle. “We outdid Mushroom Pillow, if not for the fact that I don’t think we’d stick with it here,” says the guitarist. “But we’re out of contract and we just wanted to find a stage and try new things. We wanted to change everything so we could do a little bit of the same thing but from a different perspective.”

Sacrifice It’s the first single my cathedral and the last of the album’s dozen songs. It’s a perfectly recognizable flaw in the larger thing pop noisewith Isa Cea singing one of his mysterious letters to evoke the meigas and record it for us Tempus fugit. Other songs are more unexpected, e.g SMT In a real palacewhich opens the disk and drags with it unprecedented essence: the bassist’s voice is a dystopia of digital gods and queens with only piano accompaniment until it’s all used up in the band’s classic guitar chaos.

“It’s the first song in which we use the piano,” points out Rodri. “Joaquín Pascual touched him [ex Surfin’ Bichos y Mercromina]who has a refined taste and who is also the narrator of the songs of a number of songs that were previously unreleased in our discography. But it was very important for us that those songs were necessary from a musical point of view. I don’t like it when rock bands suddenly make an orchestra just to sound good. We don’t want to fall into baroque or mere decoration, we wanted to be something that will be essential”.

Aunque Caamaño Califica My cathedral like a “song record” and not as conceptual as SITwhich revolved around the concept of fame, the digital dystopia continues Diosas adolescenteswhich speaks of an obsession with image and social values. “We are in an era of technology, media standards, a culture of total performance, and musicians are defeated by artificial intelligence everywhere,” comments the guitarist. “Esa theses, hemos.” This is a classic album, played in its entirety herehow we lived in the golden era of rock”.

quiz for him My cathedral It’s the element that took the longest to peak. Born in the studio that Isa and Rodrigo had in Boiro, it was produced for indie classics like Carlos Hernández, the band’s partner. Entre todos they tried to capture the real sound space and limit digital processes to a maximum.

“Current products are technically stunning, with absolute precision and perfection, and it’s good to help you express yourself and in a short time, but our we want to take a step away“, explains Rodrigo. “Carlos often remembers the hell that was mixed in analog music, without recording, the albums of Los Planetas in the 90s, but they say ‘whatever you want’. And now you are very nostalgic for this part of the dinosaur groups, but you can actually do it: understand and grasp and turn to giving power to people and not to technology”.

The cloud is receding

Other songs that require attention My cathedral e.g Pat in the ditchin which Caamaño’s voice sounds more emotional than ever to talk about the violence young people in Galicia suffer in schools.

In Galicia, the post-war period lasted until the twentieth century“, he notes. “This song is inspired by one of my most powerful childhood experiences, but it’s something shared by many of my generation who live in other ways. I didn’t want to talk about a tragedy so much as a story. Holy year I nursed these childhood experiences, but they were encrypted in a psychedelic cloud. And now this cloud is receding. I’m in a completely different thesis, because the themes that I normally sing are more monotonous, I like them better, but I still have the feeling that Isa and Isa will not sing.”

For now, I’m in a bizarre love triangle that gets involved in the conflicts that are attacking the world. En BBBMV weapons they sing that “in Palestine the gods die every day”. “Everything affects you,” explains Caamaño. “But I always feel like I can’t play these types of songs because if you don’t carry anything, it looks like you’re looking for the applause of a certain group.” Caer en certain pornography of pain. We are not a group that loves drama or does disco dance songs or indie or overtly political habits. We’re simply trying to show a personal feeling about the things that affect us.”

In any case, My cathedral It’s a more brilliant album for Caamaño SITmarked by a pandemic: “If we were to leave inside the cave, now we are in the forest where some light is coming in“.
