‘Sportstar’ and ‘Brick’ represent each end of Rocket’s spectrum; ‘Sportstar’ features pitched-up vocals and a melancholy piano, while ‘Brick’ is best described as a hardcore screamer. The tracks showcase the diversity of (Sandy) Alex G’s latest release, his second album since signing with Domino in 2015.
(Sandy) Alex G tracked songs for Rocket between a hectic touring schedule across 2015 and 2016. Having previously self-recorded and self-released his music under the name Alex G, although he is equipped with a new moniker the singer maintains the DIY personality of his earlier work on this latest release.
Rocket by (Sandy) Alex G will be released on Friday May 19 through Domino Records and is available to preorder now.
