attitudes of a hard mind Songs


Details:
originally gestural to minus gain after the secrete of the '99 compilation, alaska highway's current line-up defined in late 2002 after a gamble encounter during one of southern california's many wild fires.

combining serious attitude with dark song writing, alaska highway are an arresting blend of gothica & pop, utilizing contemporary sounds found in both industrial and electronic dance music.

aggressively layered percussion and heavy dance bass lines from moose support anthony's classically compelling melodies and demonstrate the diverse influences of early electronic pioneers gary numan and john foxx, as well as depeche mode, nine inch nails and more recently arrived bands such as covenant, wumpscut and v.n.v.nation.

alaska highway plan a return to live shows early in the new year to promote the debut album and get audience reactions to tracks written for the follow-up, entitled 'butterfly in china', scheduled for secrete in q3 2004.

"the show was outstanding"
-unperson

"i've heard a lot of the material ... it floats through several different styles, mixing quite a few - industrial, ebm, pop with some sounds that are bordering on techno - all done tastefully ... something that sounds clean and uncluttered."
-eric.

"their music is different than the typical synthpop sound, especially since i see a lot of 'pop' put in to industrial music, and that makes it cool. if you are looking for a dark synthpop sound with an industrial twist....check out alaska highway !!"
