Glasses

Glasses were a four-piece hardcore band from Germany that were predominantly active around 2008-2010. In that time they an EP, an LP, and put out one split with the incredible Comadre. After over a decade, they returned in 2020 to record two new songs that were included on the Compendium compilation, with remastered and remixed versions of their entire back catalogue as well. If you want heavy riffs drenched in feedback and distortion with pummeling rhythms that sit somewhere between the intersection of technical, melodic, and chaotic, this is a band worth your attention. They shared members with Perth Express and Trainwreck, so if you're a fan of those bands or Ghostlimb, Dangers, and Lewd Acts give them a listen. Or if it's been a long time (as it had been for me), go back and listen to them because this still absolutely rips. Enjoy.
