Allura was conceived in early 2007 from an unusual series of unfortunate events. Allura is a five-piece band infusing a different variety of influences, from Jazz to Alternative, from Experimental to Indie - portrayed in the form of Rock. With emotive passion and resilience, Allura pristinely resonates a unique quirky melodic tone with a prerogative crunch. Feel and embrace a new emotively refreshing sound, oozing into your senses.
Behind the scenes, after the show. Come meet the band! :D
Special Thanks to Ron From BluePrint Studios.

REVIEWS
Music debut at the Esplanade's Mosaic Music Festival 2007
" Formed out of the ashes of the now-defunct Auburn's Epiphany after "a series of unfortunate events," Allura was ready to shake off their previous band's shadow by playing completely new songs by the new band. Lead vocalist Inch's dynamism and the band's youthful exuberance showed as they blasted through their set with songs like Ladida, Diary Page No. 13, and Closure. One might be compelled to peg them as an alternative emo band, but the band proved they were capable of jazzier arrangements with the song Clandestine."
ALLURA Beyond The Ashes " Allura was forged in the fire of conflict and discontent and in the
aftermath, has emerged as one of the most promising, raw and young bands out
there in the Singapore music scene. "
ALLURA'S EP: WAKE UP AND SMELL THE SEAWEED IS OUT IN STORES. You can grab your copy at Gramophone, Sembawang Music, Earshot Cafe, Roxy Records, Straits Records, MusicForGood and Beat Merchant Studios. :)
Sorry, our merch has sold out. (: and we've been too caught up with work or down with some sickness to plan anything yet. But fret not, we'll cough up a new fresh batch of shirts and buttons soon. (heh, pun intended)
Hello! We finally got around to doing a rough recording of our orignal that we named 'The first', How fitting! Have a listen and tell us what you think =D
Am 21. November findet das Mutabor Abschlusskonzert der Tour im Berliner Astra Kulturhaus statt. Da es im Winter kein Konzert in Potsdam geben wird, solltet ihr euch frühzeitig Tickets sichern. Auf nach Berlin !
After a long while of silence, finally the homemade Paper Aeroplane Ep is released. Its a free Ep, so feel free to share it with your friends!
I've included a little cover art for you ipod cover flow and what not as well as some liner notes, lyrics included.
An introduction to the new Ep:
As I walked down a street, I pondered over how time has shaped the landscape as we know it today. What was it like without the pavements and asphalt? It seems that even though buildings rise and fall, kingdoms come and go, and relationships start and end, the celestial objects seem to remain forever constant, almost a testimony of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. I wrote messages into an insignificant piece of paper, folded it up into the shape of an aeroplane, and threw it into the horizon. I watched as it faded away to nothingness against the backdrop of the sun.
Infinity
feels innately overwhelming, a feeling mathematics does not seem to
convey as well as gazing into the distance that never ends. Where would
my paper aeroplane fly to? Is there an end to the journey?
This Ep is an expression of these thoughts. Hope you would enjoy it.
Tracklist: 1. Epiphany 2. Paper Aeroplane 3. Sums & Equations 4. The Ride 5. Time = Infinity 6. A Plane Vanishes...

Hi! Just wanted to make sure all my friends know that my 2nd horror novel SACRIFICE is now in stores everywhere, including Amazon.com! I hope you'll check out this debauched and demonic horror ride! Here are a couple reviews it's gotten so far:
“SACRIFICE is a full frontal assault on your senses. It is a dark, brutal, bloody and terribly frightening book. Everson went deep into some dark abyss to bring this book to the light of day.... I highly recommend SACRIFICE.” —Famous Monsters of Filmland
“John Everson manages in SACRIFICE to dispense buckets of blood, provide edgy perversity, and walk the tenuous tightrope of horror and sex without falling: It’s rather an amazing feat.” –Hell Notes
We have changed our drummer. exit Rino, Enters Adam
Hammerson. Rino has left Vermillion due to scholastic reasons! :) and
we definitely wish him all the best in his future endeavours.

Dear friends,
