Agarimo - On a Cycle
What do you get if you combine Galicia and Bristol? Award yourself a gold star if your answer mentioned forceful, driving indie-rock with an electronic flourish and intensity levels set to a constant, adrenaline-fuelled peak. On a Cycle starts bold and strong, and never wavers, delivering three heady minutes of full-on headrush, bar a brief respite and a deep breath in the middle eight.
Agarimo (the band’s name comes from the Galician word for “in the shelter of”) is a new project from Bristol based brothers Pablo and Juan Mestres (Aye Aye, Waven400). On a Cycle is taken from their self-titled EP, recorded by the band along with Ignacio Vidales and Ben Capp at WoodShed studios, at their homes in Bristol, and also partially in their home country of Spain.
