"Pennsylvania native Alex Giannascoli's gnarled, wobbly, unfailingly melodic guitar pop evokes big star, Elliott Smith, and Built to Spill." -Pitchfork
Over the course of six self-recorded and mostly self-released LPs, Alex G has built a body of work unassuming in it's presentation but astounding in it's depth.
His first real "studio" album with an actual band, Will Toledo moves from bedroom pop to something approaching classic rock grandeur and huge narrative ambitions, with nods to the Cars, Pavement, Jonathan Richman, Wire, and William Onyeabor.
Written by Giannascoli and recorded across locations in Philadelphia and New York, the album was co-produced alongside his longtime collaborator Jacob Portrait.
This 1979 collection of the Buzzcocks first 8 UK singles is a masterpiece of Pop Punk: high tension chainsaw guitars churn beneath front man Pete Shelley's dry, sly lyrics of love ventured and, mostly, lost.
