Kellen Tryon Mills, the person behind this music, is American. Mills comes from Seattle, plays bass and synthesizer, composes and produces and has become known with the prog-rock band Alex's Hand. What happens on "Läuterung" is difficult to put into words. Pop, rock, jazz, avant-garde - everything seems to be happening at the same time and many of the songs work with complex rhythm changes and outlandish lyrics, which are interpreted by three singers. Tryon has succeeded with "Läuterung" in creating an album that could only be produced in Berlin. "The musicians are willing to deal with very complicated music and that's a mentality that fits with my approach."
