Biografía

Autolux is Eugene Goreshter (vocals, bass) Greg Edwards (guitar, vocals) and Carla Azar (drums, vocals). The trio formed in 1999 in Los Angeles, CA. Carla Azar and Eugene Goreshter had met while scoring Nobel Prize winner Dario Fo's play Accidental Death of an Anarchist. Azar had also made acquaintance with Greg Edwards when Azar's former band, Ednaswap, had toured with Edwards' former band Failure.

A devastating blow was dealt to the band in May of 2002 when Carla fell 10 feet from a stage after Autolux had opened for Elvis Costello. Her elbow was shattered. However, due to an experimental surgery involving a bone graft from her hip and 8 titanium screws, she made a full and complete recovery. In November 2002, Autolux entered the studio. Breaking in December, they finished primary recording in January 2003. In contrast with the 8-track recording method employed during the making of "Demonstration", T-Bone Burnett wished to capture the band's live sound on the album. Following the initial recording, the band began to mix and record overdubs to flesh out the songs. Throughout 2003, the album would be m
