no one in Glass Rock endorses this or knows who’s behind this blip thing
kenny powers says, “working this station is a great alternative to breaking your nose.”

Thanks to the magic of globalism rather than the tragedy (internet radio versus privatization of water), Glass Rock Life’s been getting some new hits and people have asked “What the f&ck is Glass Rock?” To clarify Glass Rock is a band formed from two groups of mutual admirers, Tall Firs and Soft Location. Here is our artist page from Ecstatic Peace! “the label that takes a chance with its reputation.”

There’s also tabs related to our debut LP and some very kind Reviews above you much like the falling sky. Sincere thanks for your interest. Right now we’re completing our second album despite Aaron playing bass with Hallogallo 2010 and [an unidentified band member] breaking his [or her] nose on the back of a Moby Dick hardcover. What?! Advanced leaks of the second record include the following review of our collared guitar section: “Whereas Mullan is prone to sounding like raindrops and surprising noises that point to a melodic optimistic future, Mies’s guitar has the feel of depleted near dead t&stacles struggling to get out from under the weight of their own existential crisis.” -Witchtorque Feedia
Glass Rock is also a ribald, raunchy but really nice loving way of life. Authenticity is great because no matter what kinda jerk you are Marshall Mathers, at least you can look yourself in the mirror.

after years of toiling on scratchy AM religious stations, Glass Rock went up to Last FM to slide same payola (paper candy, poppers) to the DJ. we found that a very nice fan-friend had already put our whole record up there for mass appeal. so there it is^(and we thank him) along with what the kids call a wiki. when [i] was a kid this is the only use of wiki [we] knew
we also have an “official” library up there http://www.last.fm/user/GlassRock where we break exciting new acts like Sonic Youth and Joni Mitchell. And that’s no knock against John who can be found at http://malleusincus.wordpress.com/2010/07/10/distant-stars/. is everyone happy? in these times of pain and strife, [i] need a freak with long, long hair.
last but not least Dr. Johnny Fever has been rolling out some tunes to make Glass Rock cringe at http://blip.fm/GlassRock “this is hard,” says Johnny, “because I acutally have no idea what music glass rock is into.” [this is true, this band never discusses music. we think dave and aaron like 'the blues' that's it -ed]
Cool lil Neu! article from KEXP who have also done a nice job supporting Glass Rock Tall Firs Meet Soft Location ranked best album of all time by Dr. David Jubb of the Breatharians.

Thanks.
Casey Kasem cannot hold it together after learning that Glass Rock has plummeted from four to twenty-five on the venerable NYU charts.
Seriously, [we] love the spins all the way and cannot help the reaction of our fans. Fans, please keep it up at your day jobs. Fucking doesn’t pay the bills, God we know.
Indie radio continues to support Glass Rock. The top 30 from WTJU in Charlottsvile, VA came across [my] desk this morning -CALL LETTERS FROM THE CITY OF AMERICA ARE ALWAYS COOL - thanks for playing our record.
A review from back in December also washed up and an unnamed band member gave some thought to disparities in the group when [he] read -This album grows soft and tall and is rather magical at times.
Glass Rock Life is right in the middle, mediating calmly. Please enjoy the 8 Days to Showtime Countdown Funk Jam beneath us.

See you at Union Pool snitched details below ( You dropped ”Satanarchistic?” Really dude, what kinda deal did they offer you?)
Insane WeatherMan footage came across [my] desk this morning -SNOW- and between that and the new Ozzy book [I] started reading in the bookstore last night, [my] thoughts now remotely controlling the ‘intenet’ turned to Black Sabbath. Much to [my] delight, someone posted a whole buncha [fucking awesome] California Jam hitherto unseen.
Rock historians will explain why Sabbath works or not. Pasty Mother Jones readers will note those dudes in football [new] jerseys who will start beating the living daylights out of Orange County punk rockers in a few years. Some will ask, -What’s this have to do with a soft rock band who loves Wings [the band], kindness, and Motown, called Glass Rock , or a seemingly troubled weatherman inhabiting a character? The simple answer to any questions, comments, and concerns is, “Black Sabbath are awesome and playing in front of palm trees.”
(P.S. If you feel down today, drink orange juice and flip through that OZZY book to read sentences like ”Those Satanists became a real pain in the arse.” Seriously.)

We appreciate the indepent radio that continues to support our album
