With an unwavering commitment to preserving and celebrating the rich history of rock music, Hassle Hindsight carefully curates a collection of timeless albums that have shaped the genre. Each release is meticulously remastered and packaged with exclusive bonus content, providing fans with an immersive experience.

From iconic records that defined entire eras to hidden gems that deserve wider recognition, Hassle Hindsight shines a spotlight on influential artists who have left an indelible mark on rock music. With an extensive catalog spanning various subgenres, there's something for every discerning music lover.

Known for their catchy, blues-infused rock sound, the band quickly gained popularity with their energetic live performances and memorable anthems. Formed in 1993, Reef consists of vocalist Gary Stringer, guitarist Kenwyn House, bassist Jack Bessant, and drummer Dominic Greensmith. The band's breakthrough came in 1996 with the release of their second album, "Glow." The album included their biggest hit, "Place Your Hands," which reached the top 10 in the UK charts and remains one of Reef's most popular songs to this day. Other notable tracks from the album include "Come Back Brighter" and "Consideration."

“Featuring the mega-hit ‘Place Your Hands’, the album was recorded in Abbey Road, Real World Studios and LA’s legendary Sound City Studios, with producer George Drakoulias at the helm. And it’s fair to say that Glow was the point where everything that made Reef so great – the spirit, the passion, the honesty, the undiluted energy – came together. It’s the sound of a band who were never short of talent or confidence firing on every single cylinder.

“I love every album we’ve made, but Glow is the one that really encapsulates the band,” says Gary Stringer today. “It’s emotional, it’s sexy, it’s passionate, it rocks hard. It’s everything Reef should be.”

Having burst onto the music scene in 1994, and with their debut album Replenish going Top 10 the following year, Reef were on a fast-track trajectory to international fame. But in true Reef style, there were no agonising songwriting sessions for Glow. It was written entirely on the hoof, wherever and whenever they had their instruments to hand – in soundchecks, between shows, in the band’s rehearsal space and the trusty blue VW van which carried them from gig to gig. “
