Black Vinyl.
Life is Not a Lesson is Glitterer's second
full-length album, featuring Ned Russin,
bassist/vocalist of seminal hardcore-punk
band Title Fight. This time Ned has produced the record himself, notwithstanding some recording and performance help
from his twin brother, Ben, and some other
friends, as well as mixing and mastering by
Arthur Rizk (Code Orange, Power Trip). It
may surprise you to hear that, irrespective
of worldly doom and gloom, the new songs
are even catchier and bigger-sounding
than those from his 2019 release, Looking
Through the Shades. With roomier drums
and more electric-guitars-per-square-inch
than ever, Life is Not a Lesson has a way
of evoking an alternate-universe version
of Guided By Voices, one with a hardcore-punk background. Life is Not a Lesson proves to be a rigorous reckoning with
the life of the mind at a time when there's
not much life outside the mind.
For fans of:
Title Fight, Touche Amore, & John Maus.
