God Save the Animals is Alex G’s fourth full-length for Domino and ninth overall. Giannascoli wrote and demoed these songs by himself, at home; but, for the sake of both new tones and a routine that was outside of my apartment during the pandemic, he began visiting multiple studios in greater Philadelphia. God Save the Animals consequently features the work of some half-dozen engineers whom Giannascoli asked to help him produce the best recording quality, whatever that meant. The result is an album more dynamic than ever in its sonic palette.
