Glassjaw apparently breaks up

Contributed by an Anonymous Source. Posted by aubin on Thursday, December 9, 2004 at 8:48 PM (EST)

Glassjaw has apparently called it a day. On their website, the band has announced their breakup, though no explanation is given. Beyond the "RIP Glassjaw," the band has also cancelled their December dates which had been scheduled with a temporary lineup.

Update: In light of the lack of details, I've changed this to 'apparently' rather than 'officially' until a statement from the band arrives.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

amen

ILOVESCOTT (December 10, 2004)

no let the door hit them on the way out

Someone (December 9, 2004)

first post, I dont think that means they broke up

BizzleBrizzle (December 9, 2004)

ahahha douche.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Big Douche

maverick (scott) (December 9, 2004)

Funniest going away message ever. It's like they were just waiting for a fourth musician to die before announcing it. -Scott

LiberationFreak (December 9, 2004)

johnny ramone?

Someone (December 9, 2004)

stop breathing

BizzleBrizzle (December 9, 2004)

Boo hoo hoo Who gives a fuck you cunt. You didn't personally know him. I don't get why people get their panties in a knot when musicians and celebrities die.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

i was talkin about scott... i wish he'd stop breathing get it right next time before you try and insult fucker

BizzleBrizzle (December 10, 2004)

I know you were talking about him And I assumed you were one of those babies crying about Dimebag Fucking grief whore!

Someone (December 10, 2004)

I don't give two shits about dimebag... stop assuming and start sucking my dick

BizzleBrizzle (December 10, 2004)

Fag

Someone (December 10, 2004)

and with that comment i think i just won

swingline (December 10, 2004)

when you request for another dude to suck on your genitalia, people have the right to call you fag.

dontneedareason (December 10, 2004)

yea.. if they are stupid

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Only the one giving can be called a fag

Someone (December 10, 2004)

exactly... a blowjob is a blowjob

Someone (December 10, 2004)

a mouth doesn't have gender. just close your eyes and it's the same.

BizzleBrizzle (December 10, 2004)

Nah, my calling you a fag was for shock value.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

a fourth musician that you can sum up in three letters

Someone (December 10, 2004)

It would have been better if Jam Master Jay was mentionned instead of ODB. He doesn't belong on that list of artist who were killed before their time since he died "naturally"

Bosco (December 9, 2004)

Not suprising, but still, I liked Glassjaw a lot. Kinda sad.

opivykid (December 9, 2004)

yay!

thedirtyhabit (December 10, 2004)

you're a turd.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

a floating turd, even

Someone (December 9, 2004)

No surprise, Palumbo is obviously more interested in Head Automatica. The future is still bright for them.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Yeah, I don't get. Head Automatica sound like a boyband. I just heard some and I think its shit. I'm just saying is all.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

if by "bright" you mean "full of more potential musical crap", then yes, i completely agree.

dontneedareason (December 10, 2004)

hahahahahah!

Someone (December 9, 2004)

ughhhh, this was very AP.net of you guys there is nothing official about this, and glassjaw has not broken up

maverick (scott) (December 9, 2004)

Except, you know, for the "RIP GLASSJAW" at the top of the page. -Scott

mykindofmurder (December 10, 2004)

i dont know dude, the site could have just been hacked. if that was the case, would you then admit that you were very "ap.net" in posting this? i am a big fan of the band, and whether or not my feelings are biased because of of that, i maintain the belief that it is hacked.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Surely though, if it was hacked, the hacker would have written a 'proper breaking up explanation' rather than a questionable sentence at the top of the page. If it does turn out to be a hacker, then he or she is a very boring hacker.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

denial!

Someone (December 10, 2004)

or maybe that "RIP" is for the 4 guys that are pictured on the front page.

dontneedareason (December 10, 2004)

"Very AP.NET..." you're a fucking loser. the band has BEEEEN breaking up for months. they scheduled shows with out telling one of their guitarist (not Beck). glassjaw, like most bands from LI are a shady bunch. head automica is the yoko ono of glassjaw

gladimnotemo (December 9, 2004)

"Oh, yeah, our shows are cancelled too!" Beautiful.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

ill take two pieces of french toast, with egg in between....soaked in maple syrup

Someone (December 9, 2004)

ahahhahahahahaha you took sandwich to another level on that one Barkley

Someone (December 10, 2004)

that sounds fucking tasty...havent had that in a while

Someone (December 10, 2004)

So it looks like the new "standard" for Sandwich comments is now "Meal" comments Barkley

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Their way of announcing their break-up was the epitome of jackassery. I am now in love with Glassjaw for it. Rob.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

jackassery, i need to add that one to my book

Someone (December 9, 2004)

WOO HOO!!!!!!

ZDP (December 9, 2004)

This is shit. Seriously. Even though I maybe haven't really listened to GJ in a while, they still stood as a sort of "gateway" band for me a few years ago, that opened doors to several other artists I may not have been able to tolerate had it not been for GJ slightly ushering me into learning what hardcore (in any form) was. Send me all the stupid, knee-jerk, "fuck you", "Glassjaw sucks" comments you want, but my opinion still stands.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

my penis is bigger than yours

ZDP (December 9, 2004)

bravo, asshole. Way to stay on topic.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

fuck you, glassjaw sucks

ZDP (December 9, 2004)

what's your reasoning? or do you just love to shoot out cliched, overly general opinions without being able to back them up?

ZDP (December 9, 2004)

oh and P.S: good job of demonstrating the type of comment I was expecting. You get an A for the day.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

do you have a 4 inch dick? nope... i do.. and that means its bigger than yours... so you get a C for the day tiny dick

thedirtyhabit (December 10, 2004)

i agree

rkl (December 9, 2004)

maybe now people will stop confusing glasseater with them. maybe.

P-Fresh (December 10, 2004)

What does it matter, both were/are terrible.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

dontneedareason (December 10, 2004)

Hahahah glasseater is the worst band on earth

Someone (December 9, 2004)

SUCKS. Glassjaw was awesome!!! what the hell, why!

Someone (December 9, 2004)

wow, they have a link to their merch on the main page, hoping to cash in on the inevitable cash flow that will come with their break up. everyone bootleg a t-shirt so beck can't get a dollar to feed his twinkie habit.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

yea... a band wanting to make money off selling merch....how absurd

dazed (December 10, 2004)

It's not getting rich quick, it's trying to get all their collective shit sold so there are no more entangling band things taking up their time. I didn't like Glassjaw or anything, but if they're breaking up there's nothing wrong with trying to recoup the money they spent on the merch.

dontneedareason (December 10, 2004)

actually they more than likely just want to get rid of all the merch and allow fans to get a piece of something that was hugely instrumental.. speaking as someone who's been in bands and lost hundreds of dollars on merch that was never sold due to a break up or whatever reason i can truly call you a cocksucker for even suggesting that the band is cashing in on merch if a band is a sell out for being on a major - and NOW you say they are cashing in on merch --- where is a working musician supposed to make money and pay rent and for gas in the van so they can play for ungreatful fucking cunts like you??

Someone (December 10, 2004)

amen

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Yes!!!! This is the O.G. Tatecore band. Later buds.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

I feel bad that you guys broke up but hey, all good things must come to an end. So..since some of you have extra time on your hands, would you like to start a band? I can play something else than the drums if I have too. Please guys...i'm fucking starving and my dog needs money for his heartworm pills. Signed, Alex Pappas

TrailerParkJesus (December 9, 2004)

that was amazing.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Dude your a fucking idiot.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

not funny

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Ha ha... very funny actually. Especially when I just saw Pappas tonight in San Diego, drunk as fuck, sitting in a bar talking about how great his new band is. And I think we all know his new band is shit and he would cut his nuts off to be in a band with any of the dudes from GJ.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

This seems a bit speculative at this point doesn't it? Is it possible the "R.I.P Glassjaw" is written towards Biggie, Tupac, ODB and Dime and signed "Glassjaw"?

Someone (December 10, 2004)

hahahahahahahahahaha

Someone (December 10, 2004)

"Is it possible the "R.I.P Glassjaw" is written towards Biggie, Tupac, ODB and Dime and signed "Glassjaw"?" No.....no its not possible....

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Those fucking flashing logos are giving me seizures!

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Kinda depressing. To everyone who things they aren't done, I remember reading somewhere not too long ago that half of the band didn't even know about the show on the 26th and they found out about it from the internet. they were pissed and said they they weren't in the band anymore. It was either here, AP, or another random punk news site, but the article is out there somewhere. P.S. I saw Head Automatica on tour w/ Thursday and The Bronx and they blew. Big downgrade.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

god they were annoying

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Sucks about Glassjaw. Has anyone heard any songs off the new "The Falcon" EP? has been leaked? I want to hear it bad!

Bowen (December 9, 2004)

I've been searching like a motherfucker...but all I can ever find is gay porn.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

good job

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Whats the falcon ep?

Someone (December 9, 2004)

brendan from lawrence arms' side project.... has his 'friends' playing with him... guys from rise against, dan andriano, and so on are in it...

jamespastepunk (December 10, 2004)

Sweet.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

but i loved them!

Someone (December 9, 2004)

my apologies in advance to anyone who liked them, BUT.....Glassjaw sucked ass. they were skinny whiny pussies who bought their gear at walmart but their clothes at j crew. hearing glassjaw compares to hearing rusty carpet nails on a blackboard...attached directly to my eardrum. structurally, their songs just didnt make sense. i mean i know they thought they were hardcore and all that, but shit even in the early days of agnostic front, when their songs were all like 15 to 20 seconds long, they still at least wrote them down and used actual notes and chords as a basis. glassjaw is just screechy nonsense and im glad theyre gone. ---Xis

joeg (December 9, 2004)

bravo! bravo!

Someone (December 9, 2004)

suck a dick

insipidaspersions (December 10, 2004)

it doesn't make sense? music is art..art isn't supposed to make sense it's supposed to provoke emotion.

Someone (December 12, 2004)

well the emotion glassjaw invoked in me was pure hatred, loathing, and a general feeling of "good lord i miss the 80s"

Someone (January 10, 2005)

Could it be that you're just a narrow-minded, whiny attention whore who wouldn't know good music if it kicked your teeth down your throat? What does glassjaw's weight and racial origin have to do with anything? I feel sorry for people as ignorant as you, life must be a real struggle when you don't understand anything. Call 1-800-charter for the help we all know you need.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

CrookedSuperhero (December 10, 2004)

Thanks for gleaming insight.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

The only band that does not deserve a sadnwich.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

haha fuck yes!

PsychoOS231 (December 9, 2004)

Why now, why not 20 years ago?

Someone (December 9, 2004)

glassjaw was not near the anti-christ that most of you think that they were. so quit jacking off to the news of their break up and go get laid.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Glassjaw really took it on the chin this year. -BSD

muskawo_ (December 9, 2004)

haw haw... I get it, chin.... jaw. very punny

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Ha punny, great word! I'm not gonna use it though. -notfeelingcreative

muskawo_ (December 12, 2004)

your loss dude.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Along with them possibly scheduling tour dates and ani difranco coming to my town I totally thought my life was getting just a tad better... but nope....

Someone (December 9, 2004)

ani difranco, u cant be serious.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Are you like.. bipolar or something? How can you like both of them?

Someone (December 10, 2004)

oooohh ani difranco is soooo hot. i wanna suck the filth off of her dirty hippy neck. mmmmmm the only thing better than hairy 70's pussy is hairy pits. FUCK YEAH!!

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Dear Darryl Palumbo you are not Dennis Lyxzen. Barkley

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Dear Barkley you are not funny. Dennis Lyxzen

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Dear Dennis: Your band's record is still unavailable in America. Shut the fuck up, you whining maggot. Best, Rest Of The Earth

Someone (December 10, 2004)

lame

Someone (December 9, 2004)

hey wait a minute... it only shows odb, biggie, 2pac and dimebag on the webpage and an announcement that their shows are cancelled. I dont understand how that can be evidence of a break-up. I'm not saying this in denial (although it kinda sucks) it just seems like you guys are jumping the gun a bit.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

i can't think of a band in the last 5 years that was more overrated.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

what about all those post-Stropkes bands? come on, both franz ferdinand and the killers are so much more overrated. on the other hand, that's all i could think of.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

when some kid told me that glassjaw was "the most important band to play music in the last 5 years", that's when i knew they had taken the title.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

The Vines.

theundergroundscene (December 9, 2004)

I have nothing more to say, except: "Oh."

TrailerParkJesus (December 9, 2004)

Wow. This is a sad day for modern hardcore. very very sad. RIP. and we're gonna have to say RIP darryl soon too.

Someone (December 9, 2004)

Huh?

Kenjamin (December 9, 2004)

are you planning on killing him?

Someone (December 10, 2004)

he has a serious disease, idiots.

Someone (December 12, 2004)

Wow... its chrons its not SERIOUS!!! its not gonna kill him fucking retard.... god damn think of it like herpes... its not gonna kill him I hope your family dies on christmas

everytimeiwin (December 9, 2004)

Someone (December 9, 2004)

what, break up and reunite 18 times with different members, while getting more and more shitty as time passes? tehehe.

dbapunx (December 9, 2004)

Glass JOE from Mike Tysons punch out is such a pussy...why does he continue to fight? I mean really...what a wimp.

Hey, give the guy some credit he did win one fight!

Someone (December 10, 2004)

That is the best video game of all time. Hands down

Someone (December 10, 2004)

you guys made me laugh! who did glassjoe ever beat? i'd like to see highlights of that fight. -paul

I want to know about The Falcon album. I was always indifferent on this band, but they spawned a bunch of shitty music. Anytime a band becomes a genre (Thrice for example) it ruins everything. - Walter Sobchak

LOL! OH SHIT! This should have a thread of its own! That was the fucking funniest thing I have seen all week.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

"racially conscious" is that what they're calling it nowadays?

jamespastepunk (December 10, 2004)

It's funny if its a joke, its even funnier if its true and someone wasn't just screwing around with Photoshop.

ThriveToFailure (December 10, 2004)

It's not a joke. I saw the Louis Theroux programme which featured them. It's kinda sad that these kids parents have warped them to think like them (their mom on the documentary was terrifying - kinda like Eva Braun gone suburbia), but I still laughed myself hollow at that interview.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

i'm so going to kill these kids parents and then sit these two in a locked room and play less talk, more rock over and over and over till they kill themselves or are ready to return to society.

Cos (December 10, 2004)

"It seems like smart white girls who have good eugenics are more interested in making money in a career or partying than getting married and having a family. And yes, we are working on some new songs about this issue." "There is also the discussion of the lack of "Prussian Blue" coloring (Zyklon B residue) in the so-called gas chambers in the concentration camps. We think it might make people question some of the inaccuracies of the "Holocaust" myth." C'mon, this is a funny joke, but No twelve year-old talks like that, no matter how fucked-up your upbringing is. Ah Vice, once again bringing the most horrible, tasteless, and funniest shit to the masses... --Cos

Someone (December 10, 2004)

if it's true, conservativepunk can add them to their short list of bands!

Someone (December 10, 2004)

glassjaw didnt breakup their expressing there view of all the musicians especially the ones in damage plan...

Someone (December 10, 2004)

too soon, dude...too soon.

mykindofmurder (December 10, 2004)

if this proves to be false, you guys are going to lose points with me. that is for SURE>

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Like they care? You're like Scott with the intelligence of Jones The Bones.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

pwn3d.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

sons of abraham reunion plz

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Maybe now they still have a chance to forever end their horrible contract with Warner that did nothing for them

Someone (December 10, 2004)

...except giving them a bus, putting them on huge tours and actually clearing their debts. For a band that sold jackshit, warner's been too good. And i'm a fan of the band.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

I meant more of they were the wrrrrong label for a band like glassjaw to be on.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

100th decent band.... wouldve liked to see the path they took after slowin down on Worship and Tribute... ahh well

Someone (December 10, 2004)

dimebag dies and glass jaw breaks up my xmas list is getting shorter!

Imposs1ble (December 10, 2004)

That works on two levels.

SHANANIGANS everybody grab a broom!

Someone (December 10, 2004)

if this is true, i'm not bummed in the least. this band is/was/will always be one of the worst things to happen to music.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

suck a dick

Someone (December 10, 2004)

yeah seriously, go choke on a fatty

Someone (December 10, 2004)

"suck a dick" because i'm expressing my opinion? nice and intelligent. oh and... yeah, you like glassjaw. so i still win.

CrookedSuperhero (December 10, 2004)

Didn't see that coming. Cough.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Hooray! -Chinatown

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Man this blows. They may not be everyones favorite, but they were different and they had their own thing going on. I give them that. They were all pretty nice to me too. I like Head Automatica when I saw them. Thought they were pretty kick ass. I don't know how well they are doing, or what numbers they have done, I just liked the show. Thought they worked it and they looked like they were having fun up there. I think what was being pulled though in the GJ universe was pretty shady. I would rather see them close it out like this then fuck over members of the band. Thats just ugly shit and there is way to much of that going on nowadays.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

i hate to be the bearer of bad news they didnt break up you morons who researches this crap? there is no statement i hate the band but jesus they said they are gonna reschedule the shows its just cause the skinny disco douche is sick again. any of you fans, just relax.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Maybe it was wishful thnking. ~Petro

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Hotter chicks go to disco shows than to hc sausage parties. I'm just sayin'....

Someone (December 10, 2004)

I don't understand why there's ODB and not Jam Master Jay? He wasn't killed by anyone (except him maybe) Nevermind Glassjaw wasn't really good...

Someone (December 10, 2004)

I decided to listen to Glassjaw for the first time in months in honor of their demise.....I got halfway through "Lovebites and Razorlines" and decided to put on Eminem....

Someone (December 10, 2004)

sell out

Someone (December 10, 2004)

wow, that is so punk of you

Someone (December 10, 2004)

hey I'm just expressing how even eminem is better than Glassjaw

Someone (December 10, 2004)

They both blow!

Someone (December 10, 2004)

He never said he was punk I think he was just pointing out how back Glassjaw suck genius

Someone (December 10, 2004)

One down....thousands to go.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

"Daryl is not doing so well. It's something that has always been a factor in this band. If he's sick, we don't play. The kid's health is more important then anything. We've never given him shit for being sick, because we can't. That would be extremely insensitive. It's no one's fault. They had to cut short a Head Automatica tour because of his health, and he hasn't fully recovered yet. I'm sure the shows will be rescheduled. We haven't been rehearsing for nothing. As soon as I have more info, I'll post. Although I'm sure it will also be explained on the official site. It usually is explained on there when there's been a cancellation."

Someone (December 10, 2004)

I think that the RIP is only for the death of dimetag

Someone (December 10, 2004)

Evidently, he had a glassjaw.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

well, darryl's chron's has come out of remission. maybe that's why the shows were cancelled.

Someone (December 10, 2004)

What deep and scathing journalism we have right here folks.

I bet I would get mad scene cred if I posted anonymously about how I hate this tour. I bet the lead singer in the band that I love will run up to me in the basement show and say, "Yea man, fuck that tour. Music isn't about music anymore, it's just a style." Then I'll throw down 15 bucks for their shirt and EP and remember that I'm not supposed to vote for George Bush or the machine he represents. This is irrelevant to the show, but saying things like this will earn me mad scene cred. So I walk up to a girl that has great fashion sense and is wearing a Led Zepplin shirt just to let everyone know that eventhough she's a punker, she can still mellow out to the stylings of classic rock. I say to her, "Boy, that tour is going to blow, with all that faux-core and hot topic crowd." She gives me a wink and offers me a piece of tofu. Later that day, I pass the arena

Later that day, I pass the arena and I see a line of kids geared up for something. It's that tour that I hate. I go up to one of the kids, a 60 pound 13 year old girl, and I call her a posuer fag. Man, that one really got her. I make sure that as I walk away she notices my Bob Dylan pin, because eventhough I'm punk, I also know I have a great taste in music. I headed on home afterwards, and jerked off to Christina Ricci while watching some of "Buffalo 66", because that movie is so scene. I thought about going out, but then I remembered I have no friends because I only like people like me. People like me don't exist. I am the scene. cmethegreat@aol.com - Chris P.S. You guys are pretty hard on Glassjaw. You make it seem like there was some diabolical force behind Glassjaw that made them popular. If you didn't like them, that's great for you. I liked them, especially when I saw them live and heard EYEWTKAS four or five years ago. When you saw them, you immediately thought people are going to love these guys. They created a style of rock all their own and it was sometimes even tolerable to the ears of the average Beatles lover.

Hysterical. The maturity level is pretty close to bottom in here. I'm particulary amused with the kids who go onto messageboards they don't like but secretly do and won't tell their friends, just to make stupid comments. See Above. -Chris

best post ever.

i just bought 2 new Squeeze records and have HA on repeat, but somehow that's not enough. overrated? perhaps. fucking awesome? definitely. like people have been saying though, all good things must end. as long as everyone in the band is doing what they wanna be at this point, i say it's alright. except for sitting in the hospital nursing stomach ulcers. that fucking sucks. go support everyone's side projects and keep looking for good new bands...is all. i guess.

i can't believe all the drama on a fuckin message board! anyone who talks shit to someonel else over the internet is a true and sad pussy ass punk motherfucker who has no real self-condidence, and anyone who takes a break up of a band as a chance to bash them is just pathetic. i think glassjaw is one of the most amazing bands i've ever heard. if you know anything about music, you will notice that the time signatures, tempo changes, and overall sound of the band is incredibly unique, and they are all brilliant musicians. i can understand if one doesn't like the bands sound, it is not for everyone. but i don't think any of you shit talkers have sold nearly as many cds or played as many shows as glassjaw did AND NEVER WILL. of course, one of you could be in a band like good charolette or something, but i find it pointless to ruthlessly disrespect a band that doesn't necceca

show rest of commenti can't believe all the drama on a fuckin message board! anyone who talks shit to someonel else over the internet is a true and sad pussy ass punk motherfucker who has no real self-condidence, and anyone who takes a break up of a band as a chance to bash them is just pathetic. i think glassjaw is one of the most amazing bands i've ever heard. if you know anything about music, you will notice that the time signatures, tempo changes, and overall sound of the band is incredibly unique, and they are all brilliant musicians. i can understand if one doesn't like the bands sound, it is not for everyone. but i don't think any of you shit talkers have sold nearly as many cds or played as many shows as glassjaw did AND NEVER WILL. of course, one of you could be in a band like good charolette or something, but i find it pointless to ruthlessly disrespect a band that doesn't neccecarily catch your interest, or even repulses you. i didnt go around bashing creed all over a bunch of message boards after they broke up. and i can't stand creed's sound. but what's the point in me saying that? you people need to look at yourselves and how incredibly stupid you appear for writing assanine replys to people who suport gj and insulting each other for different tastes in music. your just a poser...nothing more. a true fan of music does not badmouth other bands in an immature way. constructive critcism is one thing, but telling people they have a small dick for liking gj is ridiculous. and its sad that you choose to do it in a place where you can't show your face. gj will always be one of my favorite bands, and i have plenty of reasons to tell you why. i hope one of you shit talkers says something just to prove my point. this is a sight to PROMOTE music, not bash it like a bunch of know it all posers. i hope you feel tough and cool for hating on people's work, and opinions. i laugh at you all. viva glassjaw!!

amen, brotherin.

Someone (January 10, 2005)

this is sad....like i didnt even know. yesterday i logged on to their website and seen the change in their site. this sucks! glassjaw was my favorite band and yeah im never gonna get the chance to see them live again! that sucks!! RIP glassjaw.... i hope you guys will rise again

Someone (January 10, 2005)

what are you saying? they didnt break up! did you not see all the dead men's faces that came with the RIP? Glassjaw is on hold, like many other bands have been before. Jesus, these people here are idiots.

Someone (January 11, 2005)

yes i agree these people are idiots...glassjaw isnt breaking up...there is still a website and he clearly posted "No, the band is not breaking up or becoming monks, we are just beginning another record and the timing unfortunately doesn’t work." thats proof they aint breakin up...plus daryl is still workin on head automatica

Someone (February 1, 2005)

Yes, Glassjaw is not breaking up... even if they were... they couldn't unless they wanted to break their contract. They're legally obligated to make another album. I think they are a very talented group. Palumbo is obviously very interested in making his vision of Head Automatica a reality, and i think that it takes a very talented person to go from one sound (glassjaw) and go to a completely new and unique sound (HA).

Someone (February 1, 2005)

an article i read: "Hardcore loyalists needn't worry that Glassjaw have shattered. As much as Palumbo is excited about continuing to tour and record with Head Automatica, he's equally excited about returning to Glassjaw when the time is right. "We're just on hiatus right now," Palumbo said. "I have unfinished business here, and then when I'm done, I'll jump back in and get angry again with Glassjaw." ---
