Alien Skin

BIOGRAPHY

Alien Skin is veteran REAL LIFE synthist George Pappas. From the million seller SEND ME AN ANGEL in the 80s to cinematic atmosphere today. Sharing the musical sensibilities of Martin Gore, David Sylvian & all things sensuously dark, mysterious & emotive. In 2008, after a number of acclaimed albums and world tours with Real Life, covering the US, Europe and Australia, he morphed into Alien Skin, releasing his much anticipated debut album, DON'T OPEN TILL DOOMSDAY.

Compared to DEPECHE MODE and ENIGMA, and vocally to MARTIN GORE & David Sylvian of Japan, this body of work further established his signature sound of vast empty darkness and melodic melancholia. The release in 2010 of THE UNQUIET GRAVE album, finds the music of Alien Skin continuing to attract thousands of devotees across the world with atmospheric songs of seductive gothic ambiance, woven together into mesmerizing and enigmatic webs.

GHOST IN THE RAIN, the 3rd Alien Skin album was issued in February, 2012 to an anxious fan following & continues the haunting, cinematic musical mosaic of the previous 2 albums. Hear it right now.....

The 80s come out of the heat and into the cold...

Reviews: 
After the Funeral evokes a misty, chilly early morning burial, as you leave the grave and wander lost into the future. A moment in time where everything stands still and you have little ability to channel thoughts beyond immediate grief and loss.
