Race

Alex G

Thirteen sketches of suburban isolation. Brittle acoustic guitars and tape hiss create a world that feels both deeply private and slightly haunted.

August 9, 2011

A fragile, slightly eerie sense of suburban nostalgia that feels both comforting and lonely.

Moments Worth Listening For
The jarring transition from the upbeat piano bounce of 'Remember' into the haunting, skeletal guitar of 'The Same'.
The way the vocal melody in 'Gnaw' feels like it's constantly tripping over its own feet before resolving into a fragile harmony.
The abrupt, chaotic ending of the title track 'Race' that leaves a ringing silence in its wake.
