In Truth We Trust” – A Timeless Journey Revisited
Every album tells a story, and In Truth We Trust is no exception. Originally released in 1993 on cassette, this extraordinary rock album has been 
unearthed and soon to be re-released to relive the magic of its creation and celebrate its enduring legacy.
Let’s journey back to where it all began.
Ray Alex’s story is intertwined with the rise and evolution of NEPTUNE, a band that became a cornerstone of the early ’80s rock scene. NEPTUNE’s fueled its creativity until its final note in 1987. Ray Alex’s journey didn’t end there—his dynamic voice carried forward with Glory and later West End, where his undeniable talent birthed Love is a Stranger, a track that would find its home on In Truth We Trust.
The creative force behind the album was no accident. Ray Alex, Anders Olsson, and Tosh Ason, each a vital part of NEPTUNE’s legacy, came together to create music that transcended time. Their collaboration brought innovation into the studio, blending early hard-disk recording with traditional tape machines, an avant-garde approach for its era.
As technology evolved, so did their sound. With each note, the trio explored new depths, their synergy breathing life into tracks that ranged from heart-wrenching ballads to high-energy rock anthems.
The original release of In Truth We Trust gained a cult following, and during the MP3.com era, it reached new audiences who embraced its unique blend of melodic rock and heartfelt storytelling. Now, decades later, this re-release brings it to a whole new generation.
Tragically, Ray Alex passed away in 2019, leaving behind a legacy that echoes through this album. His voice, described as a blend of John Lawton and Elvis Presley, captures the soul of In Truth We Trust. With every powerful note, his passion lives on.
This re-release is more than an album; it’s a tribute to the artistry, resilience, and connection that define melodic rock or AOR if you will. Whether you’re revisiting an old favorite or discovering it for the first time, In Truth We Trust promises to take you on a journey that’s as captivating now as it was in 1993.
