Alexander Tucker Don't Look Away Vinyl

There is a distinct otherworldliness to Alexander Tucker's art. Psychedelic without ever resorting to tropes of the genre, it’s the subtle thread connecting every aspect of his output, from the vibrant and hypnotic avant-pop of Grumbling Fur, his duo with Daniel O'Sullivan, to extended drone collaborations with Charlemagne Palestine and Stephen O'Malley, to his beautiful yet strangely unnerving paintings and comics.

Continuing to carve out a space as one of Britain's most forward-thinking songwriters, on Don't Look Away, Tucker displays distinctly honest vocals with subtle shifts through unexpected variations.

Don't Look Away contrasts traditional song structure with experimental collage and rich orchestral arrangements. Viewing Don't Look Away as the final part of a trilogy, alongside Dorwytch (2011) and Third Mouth (2012), Tucker explains, "the composition across these three albums feels like a move away from my earlier records towards something clearer and traditional but still maintaining my love of manipulating source material into new shapes and forms."
