Brutal Panda Records have announced a November 5th release date of Twin Dream, the third full-length offering from Austin, TX multidimensional trio GLASSING.  The album is a sonic mirror of our era and nothing short of immense, ranging from grim to hopeful to destructive to cathartic, oftentimes all within a single song. Throughout Twin Dream, GLASSING channel multifarious energies that delve deep into the Underland while simultaneously exploring the celestial.

The band commented on the making of the new album:

“To be completely honest we wrote this record when we were fucked up and scared. When we and everyone else around us were going through one of the most uncertain periods of our collective lives. Now that the dust has settled slightly, we can look back and realize that a great deal of people got hit hard and raw and lost a lot. And not everyone had a project to lose themselves in or some passion to distract from reality. Not everyone had something as powerful as music to guide them as it guides us. Maybe you can hear some of that in the record, maybe this record ties you to our life raft. Either way, we’re beyond grateful to have it, so our job is to share it for when those bad times come again.”

GLASSING excels at the art of organized chaos through sound, blending elements of black metal and post-hardcore with ambient explorations, dream-pop sensibilities, and grinding walls of sound that defy categorization. Formed in 2015, GLASSING have shared stage with Power Trip, High on Fire, Devil Master, Creeping Death, This Will Destroy You, Portrayal of Guilt, Street Sects, and many others.

“…a unique amalgam of suffocating textures, crushing blast beats, and black metal-inspired atmosphere.” — Decibel

“GLASSING combines post-metalisms with black-metal blasts, gaining comparisons to modern favorites like Sumac, Pelican, 5ive, early Cave In and Sannhet” – Revolver

“From their wailing guitars to their staccato rhythms to their hollered vocals, GLASSING finds the sweet spot between Deftones, The Dillinger Escape Plan, and Big Black, and drive a spike deep into it so that fans can hear the raw sonic substance that bubbles forth.” — Kerrang

“…an emotional journey through dense textures and the illusion of hope… Fans of the heavier side of post-rock, the atmospheric side of post-hardcore, and the emotional side of black metal should find plenty to get lost in here.” — Heavy Blog Is Heavy

“Massive and entrancing, Spotted Horse is a one-of-a-kind achievement within its genre.” — New Noise

“Clearly a crossover between hardcore, black metal, and post-metal, this nebulous genre space means less in nomenclature than it does in emotional depth. Borrowing the most climactic elements from each style, GLASSING lift you out of your conscious thought-stream into a more dreamlike state.” — Invisible Oranges

“In a modern musical landscape where subgenres collide into uneasy blends calling attention to their construction, a band melding multiple influences into a seamless whole counts as damn near revolutionary. Incorporating strains of post-rock, noise rock, math rock, black metal, and ambient music, GLASSING doesn’t lean definitively toward any of those styles, but stands sure-footed on its amalgamated foundation.” — The Austin Chronicle
