Garrett Lyons, Verbicide Magazine:
Fragile,"EP" – self-released – CDEP Fragile is a Brooklyn-based four-piece located in the Williamsburg neighborhood and composed of three Argentines and a recent addition of a Brooklyn artist. Somehow in this combination of locations and nations, Fragile comes out with a sound strikingly close to 1980s British indie with the feel of Echo & The Bunnymen and The House Of Love combined with the best elements of the Manchester sound. The bookend tracks of the EP aren't standouts, but they aren't letdowns. The real beauty comes in the middle with "Next To Me" and "Aileen" producing a real flash of inspiration with brilliant songwriting and just a splash of art-rock. This EP is a lush record of gorgeous production and fantastic song construction. This could be a band that makes waves for years to come. - Verbicide / Scissor Press
-Todd Zuniga, Opium Magazine:
"Fragile shoots a cozy-seeming chill up your spine before it half-buries you in a complicated feeling of hope and heartbreak." - Opium Magazine

Bio
Originally from Argentina, FRAGILE is currently based in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. First meeting in Queens in 2001, Diego Vilche joined brothers Gonzalo and Pablo Zauzich to play with renowned past projects at many venues in New York including CBGBs, Continental, Don Hills, Lmaours and Castle Heights.
The recent addition of Brooklyn based artist John O'Hara (keyboards) has expanded FRAGILE's sound. Since their union in October of 2007, FRAGILE has played at a variety of venues including Public Assembly, Luna Lounge, Fontana's, Trash Bar, Arlene's Grocery, Lit Lounge, among others.
Influenced by bands such as The Cure, Siouxsie, The Chameleons and Cocteau Twins, FRAGILE's music infuses the very best of 80's style shoegaze with a post punk edge. Luscious soundscapes, ethereal vocals and a stunning live show all create a unique, post apocalyptic vision that stands in strong contrast to contemporary pop music.
