Snakewards: Vinyl LP

Label: perennial
Release Date: 13th November

Joe Glass is the bassist to shop favourite Sharp Pins and has a record on perennial, of course it's a power pop delight, it's lo-fi and homespun but when the hooks are this strong, the tunes hit with this fizz and pomp it turns that stuff hi-fi. This is absolute catnip for me, Big Star melodies, cooing harmonies, recorded in the kitchen acoustic ballads and a new wave bite. Lets get Nick Lowe producing the follow up. 

16 scrap-rock sketches straight from the heart to the gut. Maybe we can keep rock’n’roll alive for one more day? Who knows?

The Joe Glass experience is a telecastered explosion of hooks and guitar charms. One G chord away from tearing a diamond-shaped hole in the stratosphere.

Originally released as a Hallogallo Tape in January 2026, Sharp Pins bassist Joe Glass strides out under his own banner. Deluxe release of Snakewards, including the new tracks It's No Wonder, Outontouragain and Needleheart.
