What Aleph Said talk about new album «aulasy»

Lausanne-basel band What Aleph Said is a four-piece that combines post-rock, progressive rock, and stoner influences. «Aleph» – eternity – is a central notion to the band’s imagery. What Aleph Said aims to create instrumental music that is introspective, cathartic and atmospheric. You can dive into their soundscapes and feel transported to other spheres. The band's label Sixteentimes Music is right here in Basel, and they released their new album «aulasy» on March 15th.

You can buy and stream the album on Bandcamp or Spotify or get it on beautiful azure marbled vinyl at the Sixteentimes Music shop. What Aleph Said's next concerts will be on 7 May at Urgence Disk Records in Geneva, where it will be livestreamed; and 22 June at the Fête de la musique in Geneva. We talked to bassist Francisco López about the meaning behind the band's name, the difference that adding a guitar has made, and how they create their soundscapes. Listen to the interview here.
