About this product
The sounds of alexalone will usher you into warm, fuzzy, lonely spaces, then shock you alive with pulsing energy. But, alexalone's first full length album, ALEXALONEWORLD, isn't merely about the sound, it is an exercise in world building, and a portrait of the artist cradling and nurturing their emotions as they create, navigating labyrinths of pain as they search for exits, and hoping for a haven where they can survey the damage and regroup. ALEXALONEWORLD's gravitational center is Alex Peterson's (they/them) musical vision and authorial voice, the wayfarer through a forest of moods. Though Peterson is no stranger to performing with other musicians, as a live member of both Hovvdy and Lomelda, when alexalone were highlighted in NPR's 'The Austin 100' in 2018, Peterson was still recording music largely as a one-person band, layering and looping to generate the Inchbig, billowing, shoe-gaze epicsInch praised by NPR's Stephen Thompson.The album is fueled by Peterson's passion for making music and their personal experiences facing systems of oppression. Peterson found inspiration in the worlds built by Tolkien, Murakami, absurdist graphic novelist Inio Asano, and Zelda video game designers, among other artists who manage to envision worlds where agony merges with playfulness as characters traverse metaphysical spaces. Musically, they draw inspiration from Low, Boris and Yo La Tengo, among other bands who tease out paradox through sound, and who continually seek new creative terrain. Alexalone isn't afraid of descending into dark painful places, but they are also always up for play. Like the best existentialists, they imagine Sisyphus happy. Album Tracks 1. Electric Sickness 2. Where in the World 3. Unpacking My Feelings 4. Can't Sleep 5. Let It Go 6. Black Rainbow 7. Ruins 8. Eavesdropper

Standouts such as InchALL I NEEDInch and InchFULL BODY LEARNING,Inch highlight just how powerful the band's music is - a beautifully chaotic world that is all-encompassing and undeniably mesmerizing.alexalone has performed across North America with the likes of Soccer Mommy, Lomelda, Remember Sports, and others.

DSU is the incredible breakthrough fifth album from Alex G. The first of Alex's records to be released internationally, in November 2014, DSU presented a crossover moment for the prodigious Philadelphian songwriter, then still 21 years of age and a student at Temple University. Entirely self-recorded at home, almost exclusively solo, and, until then, all self-released and available only via Bandcamp, Alex had already built a fervent online cult fan-base before his fifth album landed to a wider audience, coupled with his first shows in the UK and Europe that winter. Subsequent releases, including the first professionally mastered versions of earlier albums Trick and Rules in 2015, and his three follow up albums with Domino, have cemented him as one the best songwriters around. His fan-base, including the likes of Frank Ocean, continues to swell as more and more listeners discover his prolific back catalogue, with DSU a firm favourite and those same fans voraciously sing back every lyric at his worship-like live shows. Album Tracks 1. After Ur Gone 2. Serpent Is Lord 3. Harvey 4. Rejoyce 5. Black Hair 6. Skipper 7. Axesteel 8. Sorry 9. Promise 10. Icehead 11. Hollow 12. Tripper 13. Boy 14. Soaker 15. Waiting for You
