Irish rock's new breed prove their mettle
"An eight-legged gift from classic rock heaven, Glyder emerged fully-formed with their superb debut album a couple of years ago. Darker, heavier and more diverse than its predecessor, the follow-up is an album of great songs, great performances and, most importantly, great spirit. While still channelling Thin Lizzy's melodic soul, Glyder have branched out into new territory here, evoking the punk bite of The Only Ones and The Ruts on 'Puppet Queen' and 'Over And Over' respectively and revelling in epic, Floyd-ian languor on 'The Merrygoround', a beautifully bitter and graceful diatribe against religious hypocrisy. Elsewhere, the Irishmen confirm their mastery of soulful, hook-stuffed hard rock, most notably on blazing opener 'Gamblers Blues', the shuffling menace of 'Sweets' and, best of all, the sizzling dynamics of the title track. Throw in an excellent bonus DVD and this is simply irresistible" DOM LAWSON - METAL HAMMER 8/10
?With a solid twin guitar attack ripping out the harmonies with aplomb and more swagger than Clint Eastwood, Walking My Own Ground? and ?For Your Skin? have the same stadium gallop and romantic nuances that Lizzy exuded with glorious result?. ? Classic Rock Magazine
"Theres a reason they call it classic rock and the riffs of opener "Gamblers Blues" and the eerie atmospherics of the title track are just two examples of how songwriting will always outlive trends" -Rock Sound Magazine
?The quality of the songwriting really does separate Glyder from the vast majority of up and coming acts that would be viewed as their peers, which augers extremely well for their future? ? HARDROCKHOUSE.COM
?Glyder are one of the best kept secrets of the European rock scene. Seek their CDs out... you really won't regret it? ? Jason Ritchie Blogs Critics
?Songs like "Gamblers Blues," "Sweets," "Puppet Queen," and "Walkin' My Own Ground" are filled with THIN LIZZY-esque melody lines, upbeat riffs, and absolutely killer lead guitar playing?. ?The Metal Observer Canada.
?Take a huge slab of hard rock with heaps of melody, a notable bluesy element and even subtle shades of punk and 90?s rock and you get Glyder? ? Metalteamuk.net
"A real tasty item, brimful of hooky melodies and a fine arrangement...the Playing is full of energy and stays focused and on target" - Hot Press Magazine
