History
Linea Aspera is a minimal synth / darkwave band formed in London, UK that was originally active from 2011 to 2013. A musical duo, they were fronted by vocalist Alison Lewis (Keluar, Zanias), with Ryan Ambridge on synthesizers; Lewis wrote the lyrics while Ambridge wrote the electronics, as well as mixing and producing the recordings. The band reunited in 2019, recording a new studio album due in late 2020.
Founded in November 2011, Linea Aspera were influenced by electronic bands from the 1980s. A reviewer reporting on a gig in January 2012 noted that their music sounded "very 80s", and that they had "sprung fully-formed" from the musical underground of East London. That month self-releasing an extended play cassette, titled Linea Aspera EP, it was described by the Burning Flame website as number one in their Top 20 EPs of 2012.
