Taking its tongue-in-cheek title from discourse questioning if Jesus was an alien, Perel presents the album as “a soundtrack for the listener’s own journey through the intricacies and ironies of modern belief.”

Taking influences from an eclectic variety of sources ranging from 2000s indie dance to rave compilation, Jesus Was An Alien moves through electro, disembodied vocals, acid, haunted chimes, and synth melodies.

The album also features vocal contributions from Marie Davidson.

It follows the release of her debut album — Hermetica — on DFA.
