GLASSING Release New Single “Absolute Virtue”

Texas Doom Metal outfit GLASSING have released a new single from their upcoming studio album, Twin Dream. The new track, titled “Absolute Virtue”, is out now on major streaming/digital platforms, and can be heard via the YouTube link below and Invisible OrangesHERE.

Speaking about the new single, the band comments:

“‘This track is about humanity’s slow burn to extinction. The question of where do we find the will to persist as things just get worse? The title ‘Absolute Virtue’ describes this very crucial, hidden spiritedness that guides our self-preservation.”

GLASSING – “Absolute Virtue” (Audio)

GLASSING’s third full-length studio offering, Twin Dream, will see a November 5th, 2021 release via Brutal Panda Records. The album is a sonic mirror of our modern era, and nothing short of immense; ranging from grim to hopeful to destructive to cathartic, and oftentimes all within a single song. Throughout Twin Dream, GLASSING channels multifarious energies that delve deep into the Underland while simultaneously exploring the celestial.

Glassing is also thrilled to share that the band will play a special album release show on Sunday, November 13th at Hotel Vegas in Austin, TX. Tickets are available at:

Twin Dreamwas recorded with Andrew Hernandez (This Will Destroy You, Balmorhea, The Sword, Mammoth Grinder) in a remote Texas studio replete with crumbling infrastructure and the ghosts of country troubadours echoing amongst the walls. Elements of post-hardcore, black metal, noise rock, ambient, shoegaze, and doom swirl together to create a rich palette of mood and textures across 11 tracks that ruminate on splintered realities, altered consciousness, and esoteric philosophy. While the world burned on the outside, the music took on an entirely new meaning and those that survived the nightmare were left with a newfound sense of hope amongst the bleak reality. Twin Dream is the archetypal soundtrack to these end of times.

More About Glassing

ATX based Glassing is a three-piece, genre-blending amalgamation of heavy music saturated sonorously in dejection. Notable elements of Post Rock, Shoegaze, Doom, and American Black Metal, Glassing have been making music that walks the line between all 4 genres seemingly all at once. Fronted by Cory Brim on guitars, Dustin Coffman on bass and vocals, and Jason Camacho on drums, each individual has a mastery of control over each genre, brandishing an outward love and appreciation for all of them simultaneously. This type of coalescence has prompted an estrangement towards traditional fans of metal excluding them from the genre for some almost entirely. Flaunting an unapologetic stance towards moving their style forward in any way they can, Glassing simply creates what they wish to hear for themselves. Using each division as a medium of creativity with no restrictions to genre traditionalism or gatekeeping. Since their conception in 2015 they have come out with one self-titled EP, the two LPs “Light And Death” and “Spotted Horse” and are anticipating the release of their third full-length record aptly named “Twin Dream”. Since the recording of “Twin Dream”, the band has brought synth and midi noise master Shaun Ringsmuth of Street Sects on board for live show performances and future compositions.
