Autolux is one of Los Angeles’s finest rock outfits in my opinion.  Lately they’ve been getting a lot of attention, not to mention killer shows (that’s what happens when your manager is The White Stripes manager as well), so I’d be surprised if you haven’t already heard about this band in some form or another. Their sound falls somewhere between My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth (and I’m talking about the Sonic Youth records where they play SONGS not the ones where they’re banging spoons together), Can, and The Jesus and Mary Chain (from whom I think they’ve borrowed the amazing ability of marrying their lovely shrieking noise, insanely loud and glorious feedback, with their lush and beautiful male/female harmonies). The more I listen to this, the more I’m diggin’ it.  It’s good live too. Not to sound like a total misogynist, but their drummer Carla, is by far the best female drummer I have ever seen. Hell, she’s better than most guy drummers out there.
As for the other members, Greg (guitar/vox) was in that band Failure whom you might have heard before.  Homeboy has his tone DIALED! And Eugene (bass/vox) was in the Guns N’ Roses video “November Rain” playing violin and wrote the instrumental Beastie Boy’s song “Eugene´s Lament” (among other things like playing in that punk band DFL). These dudes are going out on US tour with Nine Inch Nails and Queens Of The Stone Age pretty soon which means they’re gonna see Aaron eat a lot of cake.
