Double LP version. Welcome once again to the Allien world: this one is subtle, mysterious, and minimal. This could easily be Allien's most intimate album yet: the sounds of everyday life and snatches of whispers reveal themselves with field-recorded closeness, the beats are as soft and as near as a heartbeat, ambient synth sounds are as long and spacious as an arm stretching across a couch, and everything is arranged in exactly the right place, as in a well-appointed parlor. But Sool also illustrates that minimal is not only meant for private moments, but also for the dancefloor. Some songs clang with an industrial aggression, others throb with a stark intensity, while still others gently coax you onto the floor just to break your heart. Sool is Allien's own personal creation -- a ghostly presence that resides within the objects and architecture of everyday life and everything that is within and surrounds her. Sool is an alluring portrait deep inside the most active parts of the brain and the quietest area of the heart.
