Review

Alex G's debut album, "Race," released in 2010, is a lo-fi gem that beautifully showcases his raw talent and distinctive sound. This album is a delightful mix of double-tracked vocals, meticulously produced textures, and dream-like lyrics that captivate the listener's imagination. Each song feels like an innocent child’s toy that unwraps layers of hidden, eerie qualities as you listen.

The melodies in "Race" are catchy and memorable without being overly demanding, making them stick with you long after the music stops. The xylophone in “Trash” starts off playful but slowly takes on a haunting character, while “Gnaw” draws you in with its captivating offbeat leads. It's an ambitious and charming introduction to Alex G's musical journey, leaving you eager to explore more of his work. - Erika
