Winnepeg’s Glassreel is a masterclass on the hard-to-nail trifecta of layers, technique, and breathing space. Nothing is simple, but everything is effortless. Following their 2022 debut Lustre, the group returns with “Myself Instead,” a song that shows the further fine-tuning, cohesion, and boldness the quartet has been building on.
While the Belle & Sebastian and Mazzy Star inspirations remain, “Myself Included,” indicates an upcoming album where those nods will be in mere glimpses because, honey, Glassreel is now staring into the looking glass; it’s all them. And it’s very exciting.
“Myself Included” is out today.
