Alex G has announced a new show at Glasgow&#39;s legendary Barrowland Ballroom later this year. Pennsylvania&#39;s preeminent master of melodic nostalgia and indie rock experimentation Alex Giannascoli and his long-serving band of brothers return to the city on Mon 17 Nov for their biggest Scottish live show to date, swiftly following the announcement of long-awaited new album Headlights, due for release on 18 July. <a href="undefined">In the meantime, Alex has previewed the first track from his new album</a>, entitled Afterlife. Aided by an irresistible mandolin-heavy hook, the song plays to the melodic strengths of previous records God Save The Animals, House of Sugar and in particular, 2017&#39;s Rocket, yet hints at new narrative direction and perhaps the most dextrous and most refined production to date. It&#39;s a bittersweet little banger which more than justifies the excited anticipation of this new record, perfectly-placed to come out right in the heart of summer.Pre-sale for the Barrowlands show starts on Thu 19 June @ 10amSign up <a href="undefined">HERE</a><a href="undefined"></a><a href="undefined">Check out the video for new single &#39;Afterlife&#39; below: </a><div class="video-container">

Since forming in 1989 in Buffalo, New York, Mercury Rev has made a career of boldly exploring the fringes of artistic perception, channeling colors and sounds and visions that always seem just beyond our mortal reach.&nbsp;The Guardian&nbsp;hailed the group as “a rarity in indie rock: a band who have continually evolved their sound, pushing at the boundaries of what rock music actually means over 25 years, borrowing from jazz, funk, doo-wop, techno, folk and more along the way,” while&nbsp;Rolling Stone&nbsp;praised their “majestic chaos,” and the&nbsp;BBC&nbsp;lauded their “shimmering psychedelic pop, immersive indie-rock, [and] spectacularly engrossing passages of sumptuous instrumentation.”&nbsp; &nbsp;The band’s 1991 debut, ‘Yerself Is Steam,’ landed on&nbsp;Pitchfork’s Best Shoegaze Albums of All Time, and their 1998 breakthrough, ‘Deserter’s Songs’, upon its release was named&nbsp;NME’s Album of the Year,&nbsp;Pitchfork’s&nbsp;100 Favorite Records of the 1990s (2003),Melody Maker’s&nbsp;All Time Top 100 Albums (2000),Uncut’s&nbsp;200 Greatest Albums of All Time (2016) and multiple1000 Albums to Hear Before You Die&nbsp;lists.&nbsp;Diverse musical collaborations with legendary artistic luminaries as well as major festival and network television performances around the world have solidified their status as One of America’s most pioneering groups capable of straddling the line between mainstream appeal and progressive musical experimentation…
