God Save The Animals

by Alex G

supported by

irocaboca The album is solid from start to finish. Listened to it on a recent road trip, and it’s catchy surface almost does a perfect job of masking the sadness in each song, but the more you listen the more it reveals itself. Favorite track: Ain't It Easy.

SYNTH MAGICK hits where it hurts Favorite track: Ain't It Easy.

Cam Late to the Alex G party but soon as I heard tracks like SDOS, I said to myself, count me in .
Great album 👍👍👍 Favorite track: Cross the Sea.

about

“God” figures in the ninth album from Philadelphia, PA based Alex Giannascoli's LP’s title, its first song, and multiple of its thirteen tracks thereafter, not as a concrete religious entity but as a sign for a generalized sense of faith (in something, anything) that fortifies Giannascoli, or the characters he voices, amid the songs’ often fraught situations.

Beyond the ambient inspiration of pop, Giannascoli has been drawn in recent years to artists who balance the public and hermetic, the oblique and the intimate, and who present faith more as a shared social language than religious doctrine.

As with his previous records, Giannascoli wrote and demoed these songs by himself, at home; but, for the sake of both new tones and “a routine that was outside of my apartment,” he asked some half-dozen engineers to help him produce the “best” recording quality, whatever that meant. The result is an album more dynamic than ever in its sonic palette.
