Details of Alex Rex
Artist / Band
Details
Alex Rex is Alex Neilson - drummer for the international underground, including Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Shirley Collins, Jandek and Current 93 - abandoning the folk-rock pomp of his previous band Trembling Bells for something darker and wilder. Founding member and chief songwriter of critically acclaimed folk revivalists Trembling Bells, Alex Rex is the nom de guerre of Alex Neilson - drummer to some of the most innovative musicians on the international underground, including Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Shirley Collins, Jandek and Current 93. Alex has synthesised the agonised self-invention and charismatic death-drive of these artists into his solo vehicle - abandoning the folk-rock pomp of his previous band Trembling Bells for something darker and wilder. Following the critical success of his second solo album Otterburn (2019) which was a heartfelt response to his brothers sudden death on 2017 Alex Rex returns with songs of love, loss and loathing in his third vehicle 'Andromeda' on independent label Tin Angel.
