LP - Limited Edition 180g Black Vinyl.
Neil Dexter’s trajectory towards his densely textured solo work, an irresistible expression of experimental art-pop motifs, demonstrates a striking tonal shift from projects he’s been involved with over the last decade.
Across the album are themes of feeling isolated in social settings (‘Alpha’), of longing and grief on ‘We’ll Be There’ and ‘I’ll Be With You’. Elsewhere, ‘Robert Wyatt’ captures Neil’s amazement at the legendary English artist’s album Rock Bottom after listening to it for the first time, while ‘The Electrician’ by The Walker Brothers provided inspiration for the eerie undertones permeating ‘Don’t Question It’.
The album was made beteween Summer 2018 and Autumn 2020 in Dublin.
Along with the album announcement and single release, Dexter recently shared details for his debut headline show in Dublin’s Workman’s Cellar on October 20th.
