Our Take

ALEX REX's latest offering, Andromeda, is a cosmic journey through the weird and wonderful mind of frontman Alex Neilson. With a sound that's equal parts folk, psych-rock, and avant-garde, this album is a sonic odyssey that will leave you both mesmerized and slightly confused.

From the hypnotic drone of "Black Bird" to the haunting beauty of "Beneath the Waves," ALEX REX takes listeners on a transcendental trip through the outer reaches of the musical universe. Neilson's evocative lyrics and off-kilter vocals add a touch of surrealism to the already otherworldly soundscapes, creating a truly immersive listening experience.

The album's production is as lush and ethereal as the music itself, with layers of instrumentation that veer from delicate acoustic guitars to swirling synths and back again. The result is a rich tapestry of sound that feels both timeless and utterly modern.

While Andromeda may not be for everyone – its experimental nature may be off-putting to some – for those willing to take the plunge, it's a rewarding and mind-bending experience. ALEX REX has once again proven himself to be a master of the musical unknown, pushing boundaries and defying expectations with each new release.

In conclusion, Andromeda is a wild and wonderful ride that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about music. Strap in, dear listener, and prepare to be taken to a place where the weird and the wonderful collide in glorious harmony.
