Type in www.glassjaw.com into your browser. Did you do it? Spell it correctly? Ok, good. Now sit back, crank up the volume (not too loud in case you want a heart attack...you'll find out what I mean soon enough) and soak in the sounds of a brand new track from Glassjaw! 'You Think You're Fucking John Lennon', which is the name of the new track, was first played live around two years ago, but I guess Daryl finally decided to put vocals down with the rest of his band in the studio (and I love him for it). The guitars come crashing in with Daryl's shrieks, almost reminiscent of Stephen Carpenter riffage (a la Engine No 9) and the chorus is just kick ass. Everything you loved about Glassjaw's blend of post hardcore is here, and the 6 year wait for new material is definitely worth it if the rest of the album follows suit. The new song definitely is akin to 'Worship and Tribute' era material, so if you dug that, chances are you'll dig the new song. Ya dig?
(you'll be greeted by the Puerto Rican flag at the Glassjaw website...?)
If you got too excited reading the words 'new Glassjaw track' here's the recap - go to the official website and it streams automatically. Go!
