Alex Rex - 'Paradise' Album Launch at The Glad Cafe
Glad:Online// are delighted to present a special performance from Alex Rex, in celebration of their new album release 'Paradise' (out 30th July via Neolithic Recording), filmed at The Glad Cafe.
Alex Rex line-up includes: Alex Neilson, Rory Haye, Lavinia Blackwall and Marco Rea. They'll also be joined by special guests Mike Hastings, Ross McRae, Richard Merchant and Boss Morris.
Paradise is his fourth album as Alex Rex. Whilst the first three were shrouded in loss and loathing, Paradise is a different beast. In many ways Paradise marks a fresh start for the Glasgow-based polymath. Reunited with ex-Trembling Bells vocalist Lavinia Blackwall for the first time since the band’s demise - Marco Rea (Euros Childs) and regular collaborator Rory Haye make up the rest of the Paradise party, with guest vocalist Kacy Lee Anderson (Kacy & Clayton) blowing a seductive smoke-ring through one track. Paradise introduces us to a new and uncharacteristically playful side of Alex Rex.
"Full of grief, romantic anguish, but twinkly as well" Uncut
"Gothic pop noir reminiscent of Nick Cave" Q Magazine

'It freewheels wantonly and earnestly from noise chug to trad country to towering goth ballad' Record Collector
