Los Angeles noise pop trio Autolux formed in 2000. Singer/bassist Eugene Goreshter met ex-Ednaswap drummer Carla Azar while collaborating on the score for Dario Fo's play Accidental Death of an Anarchist, and following the addition of late Failure guitarist Greg Edwards, the radical made its live debut that summertime at the far-famed L.A. area club the Silverlake Lounge. Upon cathartic the self-produced EP Demonstration in the spring of 2001, Autolux signed with producer T-Bone Burnett's newcomer DMX label and began writing material for their approaching debut LP -- yet, in May 2002 Azar fell from a stage and tattered her elbow, making a complete retrieval following an experimental surgery that requisite the effectuation of ashcan School titanium screws. At year's end the mathematical group eventually entered the studio apartment, and patch recording wrapped in early 2003, Autolux exhausted more than than a year refining the final merge and Future Perfect did not hit retail until October 2004. Tours in support of the Secret Machines and Nine Inch Nails followed, as did an appearance on the Vincent Gallo-curated All Tomorrow's Parties festival.
