Allele describes their sound as "hard rock with a new feel" and Point of Origin has been received with a good amount of positive reviews. The band completed a tour with labelmates Switched and A New Revolution (featuring ex-Unloco frontmant Joey Duenas).
In early June, 2006, it was announced that Kelly Hayes has been out of the band since January to deal with legal and personal issues. The band stated that they would continue as a four-piece.
On June 29, 2006, it was revealed via Allele's MySpace blog that vocalist Wally Wood had left the group. The explanation given from the remaining members was the following: "Unfortunately when you put 5 people in a van for months at a time, every once in a while, one of them doesn't get back in". Andy Toole was immediately announced as the new vocalist, and the band will continue to tour and begin the recording process on their second album in the fall of 2006.
Allele's track "Stitches" was featured in trailers and promos for TNT's Stephen King anthology series, "Nightmares and Dreamscapes".
As of February 9, 2006, Point of Origin had sold over 5,000 copies in the US.
Lies
Allele Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Was this all for me
All alone, on my own
Caught up in your lies
What if they knew it was you
Caught up in disguise
After all I've done for you
Caught up in your lies
So cynical, so many faces
Inside I wonder, just how you made it
All alone, on my own
Caught up in your lies
What if they knew it was you
Caught up in disguise
After all I've done for you
Wait and see how it's gonna be
Caught up in your lies
Because of you
Because of you that I'm here
In this place alone with no one to be
Completely because of you
Your lies
Your lies
Your lies
Caught up in your lies
What if they knew it was you
Caught up in disguise
After all I've done for you
Wait and see how it's gonna be
Caught up in your lies
In your lies
I'm caught up
I'm caught up
I'm caught up in the lies
Will we ever find the truth?
The lyrics of Allele's song "Lies" seem to express the feeling of being betrayed by someone who was supposed to be trustworthy. The opening line "So much for your fake innocence, was this all for me?" suggests that the singer has realized that someone they trusted was never sincere with them. The lines "Caught up in your lies, what if they knew it was you, caught up in disguise" emphasize the deception that the singer has been subject to. They seem to feel alone and isolated, wondering how the other person managed to deceive them for so long, and questioning whether they will ever find the truth.
The repetition of the phrase "caught up in your lies" highlights the feeling of being trapped and manipulated, while the line "completely because of you" suggests that the singer feels powerless and stuck in the situation. The final question "will we ever find the truth?" seems to express a sense of hopelessness and doubt that resolution is possible.
Overall, the lyrics of "Lies" convey a sense of betrayal and disappointment, but also suggest an unwillingness to give up hope for a resolution. The song seems to ask the listener to consider the importance of honesty and trust in relationships, and the damage that can be caused when those values are violated.

So much for, your fake innocence
Your attempts at displaying innocence are futile and clearly insincere

Did you plan it all along just to deceive me?
All alone, on my own

If others were aware of your deception, what would happen?

You have gone to great lengths to hide your true intentions

Because of you
My current situation is a direct result of your actions
Because of you that I'm here
Your deception is the cause of my current predicament
In this place alone with no one to be
I find myself isolated and left to deal with the consequences of your lies
Completely because of you
Your actions have completely led to my current situation
Your lies
The falsehoods you tell are the root of the problem
I'm caught up
I am trapped and unable to break free from the web of lies you have spun
Will we ever find the truth?
I am uncertain if the truth will ever be uncovered or if I will be forever caught up in your lies
