Lima Shakes strikes gold again with "How I Feel"

 
After bursting onto the scene with the passionate "One More Time," Lima Shakes follows through swinging with their second single, "How I Feel." This song proudly wears the opposite of its own jigsaw-like disorder with a sense of pride. Unhinged, unpolished, raw, melodic, and irresistibly hooky, this song clarifies that Lima Shakes aren't a one-hit introduction; they're carving out a real place for themselves.

Founded by childhood friends Alessandro Ambrosini and Alonso Suárez after relocating from Lima to Madrid, the final piece of the Lima Shakes is laid in drummer Bruno Stac. Together, they've forged a sound that's half rebel soul and half sweet melody, a mash-up that feels timeless and daringly new. "How I Feel" delves into the tense in-between place of knowing what you want and not being able to reach out and take it. It's a musical snapshot of that too-familiar internal tug-of-war enjoying it all but feeling trapped where you are. Lima Shakes' exotic brew is delivered through pounding guitars, tight percussion, and melodies you can't shake to save your life.

With "How I Feel," Lima Shakes are warming up for a flurry of releases next year; fans have much to look forward to if this single is any indication. There's a clear sense of development from their debut, and the band sounds more focused, self-assured, and willing to wade into the messy bits of what it means to be human. In a rock' n' roll universe where rock usually tries too hard to be either nostalgic or trendy, Lima Shakes land somewhere in the middle: honest, infectious, and ready to thunder.
