Out of the darkness shines a hint of hope with ALU’s debut CD “Infomercial Gasmask.” Her 11 song mood piece is a blend of solid songwriting, dark electronica and crystal clear vocals, an intense mixture of jazz, pop and classical music that can only be described as “ALU.” This collection of songs examines the destructive nature of modern life and its damaging effects on the fragile human condition. ALU’s apocalyptic lullabies give hope and strength in such desperate times. A haunting yet healing voice that challenges and inspires. ALU is the sound of the future. “Infomercial Gasmask” features collaborations with electronica dub artist Doctor Echo, virtuoso string arranger Hiro Goto and the legendary sound engineer Geza X. All songs are written and performed by ALU. Also, ALU’s jarring single “Asphyxia” is featured in the Babcock Jedeikin independent film “Out of Body.” For fans of: portishead, radiohead, bjork, tori amos, massive attack, jeff buckley and coldplay. What the press is saying about ALU: www.smother.net, Reviewed by J-Sin Band ALU, Album - Infomercial Gasmask This release is an editor's pick on Smother.Net, It also ranks #4 in the top 10 albums of September, 2004. “If all we only had to do was go down to the local store and pick up a gasmask to ward off the evils of Infomercials and other corporate whoring tools. Lyrically it’s an adventure by its very nature; these are soulful wailings against the darkness but inviting the darkness a little bit closer than we’re comforted with. Blending dub with trip-hop, jazz, classical, and gorgeously illuminated by ALU’s female vocals, this album is a fragile self-examination that will leave you feeling haunted by the poltergeists that surround such frantic moments. Tori Amos and Massive Attack had a baby and they call it ALU.”
