Glass Records Redux

Glass Records was one of the key London independent record labels of the 1980s, operating from 1981-1989. Known for its innovative and diverse roster, Glass Records played a crucial role in shaping the alternative music scene during that era.

In 2015, Glass Records was resurrected as *Glass Redux* with a mission to remaster classic releases "For The Kids" and discover new music for the "grown Ups". With a rich history and an eye towards the future, Glass Redux continues to celebrate and support independent artists across various genres.

Whether you're a fan of post-punk, indie rock, or experimental sounds, *Glass Redux* offers a curated selection of music that will satisfy your cravings for unique and boundary-pushing tunes. Explore our catalog and discover hidden gems that will transport you back to the vibrant musical landscape of the 80s while also introducing you to exciting contemporary artists.

The Vaselines are a Scottish indie pop band formed in Edinburgh in 1987. The group was founded by singers/guitarists Eugene Kelly and Frances McKee, later joined by Kelly's brother Charles on drums and James Seenan on bass. They signed to Stephan Pastel's newly formed label, 53rd and 3rd, releasing their debut single "Son of a Gun" in 1987. Despite disbanding after the release of their only studio album "Dum Dum" in 1989, they briefly reunited to open for Nirvana in Edinburgh. Their songs were covered by Nirvana and gained renewed interest leading to the release of their compilation album "The Way of the Vaselines" in 1992.

Eugene Kelly went on to front Captain America (later renamed Eugenius), while Frances McKee resurfaced with Suckle after spending most of the decade out of sight.

With influences from the Velvet Underground evident through the inclusion of viola player Sophie Pragnell, The Vaselines' music continues to captivate fans with its unique blend of indie pop sound.

The first album from The Vaselines was a pure shot of adrenaline. Released in June 1989 via 53rd and 3rd, the album contains ten short and fast sexually provocative indie hits. The influence of early Jesus and Mary Chain, the Pastels and above all the Velvet Underground are clearly discernible throughout, but each song bears the unique stamp of Kelly and McKee's partnership: slyly humorous, lo-fi, scrappily off-key and endlessly catchy, they tick off every box in the 1980s indie playbook without ever sounding like they're trying to.
