The only thing I kept thinking while watching The Glass was that if I had my own record label, I would sign these guys in a heartbeat.
It’s like all the genius that came out of 80s Britpop/rock and late 90s electronica all wrapped up into one.
Therefore, it should come as no surprise that the band lists Everything But The Girl, Jesus and the Mary Chain and New Order as their biggest influences on their MySpace page.
The first words uttered at this show by the ever-delightful and cocky lead singer were something like ‘You better dance, you jaded New York motherfuckers’ in a heavy Irish accent. I fell in love with them pretty quickly.
I also adore the fact that there is a live DJ, working the turntables during the show. This gave it a very slight early Beastie Boys sound, which of course I dug.
Follow this link to hear their entire EP, I’m particularly fond of “Fourteen Again” and “Heard It All Before”, so if you are in a rush, I suggest you should check out those first.
Truly a great way to end a Thursday evening.
One band I have stumbled upon over the last few days, thanks to a friend’s suggestion and some killer tunes is The Glass.
Their sound can best be described as a clash of Bloc Party, New Order and a taste of Cut Copy.
If I can make it through this bad cold, I will surely be their show on Thursday @ 11 @ The Delancey. More info and goodies on their official web site.
Check ‘em out why don’tcha?
