Ahead of his first ever visit outside of the US this November, which includes an already sold-out headline show at London’s Sebright Arms, the anticipation for Philadelphia native Alex G’s gritty and lo-fi-tinged music has been building. So much so that he’s booked his next run of UK and first European dates for this coming February and March – set to take in Berlin, Paris, London and more.

He has been recording music since he was a teenager, amassing a sizable and dedicated internet fan base. Alex said himself in an interview with VICE that his rise to popularity came due to him becoming “Bandcamp famous.” I think his earlier album highlights aren't that much better than the rest of the respective records, I find Alex very consistent (in contrast to his new albums which I think have the highest variance in style and quality). Honestly 99% of the time his best songs (early and late) become better in the context of the album/persona. this is probably his hookiest, its very good but house of sugar and then after that maybe DSU r his best imo. this is probably 3rd tho Idiosyncratic sketches each capable of wending its way to a distinct place into the hearts of anyone” Pitchfork 7.9

DSU is an album for kids that scour the internet as they would a crate full of physical records” DiS 8/10 Strauss, Matthew (October 13, 2016). "Alex G Opens Up About Working With Frank Ocean".

"Memory” falls into the category of ‘character sketches,’ akin to a large portion of alt-country lyrics, where some of the most revered bands are known for their succinct, poetic drawings of everyday life. These lyrics are focused on rural, salt of the earth people and their stories that are rarely represented in popular media, whereas Alex’s character driven lyrics are generally about misfit adolescents trying to find their place in the world. “Memory’s” lyrics are sparse, with each line barely eclipsing eight words and only twelve lines in the whole song. But Alex is able to create a setting and atmosphere and coax your imagination to fill in the gaps. “Memory” describes a self medicating narrator reminiscing about their old friend. A hazy present and a hazy past swirling together and with only a feeling left over.
