Allah-Las

US 2024 press. Housed in a poly sleeve with a triangular hype sticker that reads "Worship the Sun on Translucent Orange Vinyl."
'Worship The Sun' is an apt title for the second album from the LA-based group Allah-Las, the follow-up to their self-titled 2012 debut. When The Distillery, the all-analogue studio in which their eponymous debut album was recorded closed its doors for the final time, Los Angeles' Allah-Las could easily have forgone their sound and turned to a non-descript location to record their follow up. Yet 'Worship The Sun' is a continuation in the band's authentic West Coast vibe - staying true to their home- grown dwellings it was laid down in numerous locations across LA. 'Worship The Sun' is exciting and evocative, revealing the maturity of a band no longer starting out but working at the top of their game. If you've been waiting for more of that warm hazy sunshine goodness, well brace yourself for warmer climates, the outlook is good and it goes to show that you can take the band out of LA but can't take LA out of Allah-Las
