Otherness by Alexisonfire
Otherness is an album by Alexisonfire, released in 2022. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Sans Soleil”, on 1 list with a best position of #7.
Otherness, Alexisonfire's fifth studio album, arrived on Dine Alone Records on June 24, 2022, a full thirteen years after Old Crows / Young Cardinals and the first record since the St. Catharines post-hardcore crew formally got back together in 2015. It takes its name from "Sweet Dreams of Otherness", the lead single that premiered on YouTube that March.
The band that made it is the one fans know: George Pettit and Dallas Green on vocals, Wade MacNeil on lead guitar, Chris Steele on bass and Jordan Hastings on drums. It sounds like five guys who spent a decade apart growing up rather than going soft, still slamming scream against melody the way they always did, but reaching for broader, moodier textures along the way. It climbed to No. 4 on the Canadian albums chart and won Rock Album of the Year at the 2023 Juno Awards.
