Lucky Number

DSU is the incredible breakthrough fifth album from Alex G and the first of Alex’s records to be released internationally, in November 2014. 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.

Sonically, his palette fluctuates across highlights such as the rolling rhythms of album opener “After Ur Gone” to the distorted atmospherics of “Hollow” and lyrically each track on DSU, from the more intricate narrative of addictive highlight “Harvey” to the overtly questioning elements of album closer “Boy”, reveals just enough to embolden the listener to explore beneath its surface - making what they will of Alex's introspective musings.
