What they Say About Alpha
‘This is top-notch shag material for Sunday mornings. And
Tuesdays too, if you’re a lucky bastard.’ Gary’s
single of the week Melody Maker
‘Citing the likes of Scott Walker and Glen Campbell as influences,
Alpha take the established art of song-writing and put their own
unique slant on it, creating everything from dub-driven instrumentals
to epic string-laden masterpieces.’ I-D
‘A blissful debut album’ Mixmag
Their albums ‘Come from Heaven’ and ‘The impossible
Thrill’ both sound like the great records the Carpenters and
Brian Eno never made together’
‘Dingley and Jenks have concocted an even stronger brew this
time, with languid beats and the delicate voices of Alpha’s
regulars, Martin, Wendy and Helen twinned with string arrangements
to melt the hardest of harts. As simultaneously sweet and yet melancholic
as being diagnosed with cancer while winning the lottery.’
