Debut Album "Never Grow" was named album of the week by John Peel Award 2008 Winner, Jim Gellatly on XFM radio, who championed their unique blend of European electro and dynamic retro-punk sensibilities.

"Comprising of a stylish Frenchman and a dashing Argentine lady, A-lix [...] create a wave of noise that leaves the audience dancing like puppets on strings. Even those usually opposed to electro-pop will worship at their feet." - Peter McGee, Bluesbunny reviews

"As pop as they are post-punk (some call it death disco), they wield their guitars like automatic rifles on blistering, swaggering beast of a tune" - Milo McLaughlin, The Skinny magazine

"I'm a fan" - Vic Galloway, BBC Radio 1

"Sounds good" - John Kennedy, XFM London

"A-lix is top drawer" - Tallah Brash, Fresh Air Live Radio

"The best gig I've seen this year" - Stilleto 13, Glasgow-based talented musician

"Remember those science lessons where they threw a chunk of sodium into a jar of water and it went boom! That is a pretty good way of describing the manic energy on show here. It's sheer directness seasoned with undeniable, if offbeat, continental flair" - Bluesbunny reviews

“Death disco never sounded this French and A-lix bring their own, contemporary style to the stage, while referencing a post-punk sound. Set highlight Never Grow sounds great” - Limbo

A-lix is a He and a She with a drum machine and 2 guitars bursting with electro power and pop-punk energy.

The half French, half Argentinian duo formed in Barcelona in 2005 & forged their distinctive sound while touring all around Europe and South America for 2 years. The band then decided to release their debut album Never Grow this summer onto the tough platform of Scotland’s music scene with much success.

BBC Radio 1 Scotland captured the band live at Hydro Connect Festival this summer and A-lix is regularly broadcast on Vic Galloway's show.

Critics are raving about their "energy, enthusiasm and a dash of style", as A-lix are currently causing a storm on Glasgow's live scene, not to mention having played an unforgettable set at the legendary Razzmatazz in Barcelona and recently supporting THE FAINT and in February 09 DAS POP on their Scottish date.

The band also feature on various Electronic and Rock compilations across the UK and Europe

A-lix are :
Lorena (voice, guitars)
