    tonton (Vo.),Tomoya Tsutsui (G.), Eiji Sugiura (Programing) THE ALEXX are a mysterious group who were formed and booked to play their first gig at FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL 2019. At that stage they were relatively unknown, including not having any official releases as yet. Their first album "VANTABLACK" was released in November 2019 after their coming debut single "Beatwave". In 2020, THE ALEXX released 3 songs. "Beatwave (Takkyu Ishino Remix)" was released in May 2020 and added to Spotify editorial playlist Indie PALACE and Apple Music New Music Daily playlist, with the accompanying music video filmed in Tokyo under the declaration of a state of emergency becoming a hot topic. "Something Great" was a masterpiece running 9:47 minutes long. "Outsider" was the first song with Japanese lyrics. The band's live video work "DogMan Live -episode 1- to -episode 3- and GROOVETUBE presents THE ALEXX LIVE were uploaded on Youtube. THE ALEXX played as a closing act in the 2020 New Year's Eve all-night (live) streaming countdown event KEEP ON FUJI ROCKIN'II~On The Road To Naeba 2021~ . THE ALEXX's 7th single track "COLD LOVE" was released in February 2021. A short movie of 7:41 minutes directed by <TAKAHIROMIYASHITATheSoloist.> designer Takahiro Miyashita was uploaded at the same time as the "COLD LOVE" music video, and went viral not only in the music scene but also in the fashion scene. THE ALEXX continue to develop a unique world view that is a bit different from the diversifying Japanese music scene of the 2020s. THE ALEXX
