For a very long time now, the holy grail for followers of New York post-hardcore act Glassjaw has been the periods they recorded with famed producer Don Fury within the late-90s. Fury, who has labored with such hardcore greats as GG Allin, Sick of It All, Youth of At the moment, Gorilla Biscuits, and Madball appears to have leaked that the periods will lastly be getting an official launch quickly.
The periods, which had been recorded round 1998-1999, have by no means seen an official launch, though bootlegs have been circulating amongst followers and in on-line boards for years. The periods include quite a few songs that may find yourself on Glassjaw’s 2000 debut album Every little thing You Ever Wished to Know About Silence together with “Fairly Lush,” “When One Eight Turns into Two Zeros,” “Ry Ry’s Tune,” and “Motel of the White Locust.” It additionally incorporates a couple of songs which have by no means seen the sunshine of day on any official recording, in addition to an expletive-laden, nearly unrecognizable cowl of The Conflict’s 1979 traditional “Practice in Useless.”
Don Fury had a photograph on his Fb profile from a couple of yr in the past of him holding a cassette of the unreleased periods and, yesterday, he commented on his personal photograph to disclose that Revelation Information was planning a launch of the periods with an announcement coming December 2. It appears that evidently Fury won’t have been licensed to make this announcement, as a result of the feedback and even the unique photograph appear to have since been deleted from Fb. Fortunately, Lambgoat reported on the feedback earlier than they had been deleted. Right here’s what Fury stated:
