Putting together a top ten list of singles is always harder than it should be. There's such a small body of evidence to judge success, unlike with a full album, that it usually ends up being a fight with futility. In the end I feel as though I was victorious and have each track in they're respective places. 10. The Glass Canoe – "The Field" (from Chimera ) The Glass Canoe is a relatively unknown band out of San Diego that deserve some spotlight time for this track off [...]

We have been slaving over albums and hidden tracks for the past month, but now the beginning of our five-part list of the best of the best. 100. Maritime - Paraphernalia The charmer of Human Hearts held the ethereal appeal from a group we come back to with each new record. The group signed with Dangerbird this year and we only see bright things in their future. [...]

So remember a couple of weeks ago when we posted that awesome and kind of trippy video for " First Idea " from north county San Diego (the San Diego equivalent of clarifying that you're from upstate New York) band The Glass Canoe that felt a whole lot like a hot and sticky summer day? Well, they've released their first album Chimera which you can listen to in its entirety and download for free over on their bandcamp page right now. Or tomorrow, or any other time you want, ever.

This week's completely legal and free MP3s gave our inbox rosy cheeks and a postcoital glow.
I was literally quite blown away when I first heard the The Glass Canoe 's Broka, the first track from their debut album Chimera released back in March for free to download on their bandcamp page. I guess psychedelic pop is the most accurate label to describe the sound of this San Diego based five-piece, all though they seem to be influenced by many kinds genres with their atmospheric compositions, layered vocals, sudden breaks of noise and sometimes even leaning on the more ambient, minimalistic sound. Honestly though, you got to listen for yourself. [...]
Let the Animal Collective comparisons roll. Obviously, The Glass Canoe have all the Animal Collective albums, but there's room for other bands at the experimental, world beat driven, phased vocals music dinner table. What I love most about The Glass Canoe is that their music is much more on the "Sung Tongs" or "Feels" side of Animal Collective's discography, albums that feel more organic than any of their other records. "Happy" is off the full length LP, "Chimera", which the band is giving away for free on Bandcamp. It's really a gem of an [...]
Here's another track from our favourite band named after a piece of impractical sporting equipment: The Glass Canoe. The song is called 'The Field' and it's a rather lovely piece of dark, atmospheric alt rock. Listen to it here: 'The Field'

The Glass Canoe is a fearsome fivesome out of San Diego (north county, to be exact) that is just a few years old and has just released their debut album Chimera . They are sort of like what would happen if you combined chillwave, psychedelia and pop and I kinda like it. And I REALLY like the random question and answer that is plastered on their website, because it's something I've really wondered a lot about lately. Spoiler alert, it would take approximately 100-1000 cats to make a cat wall, depending how large you want [...]
Earlier this month , San Diego's Glass Canoe graced the pages of this blog with their wonderful track "Happy". Yesterday the band had a new music video released on MOKB for another excellent track "First Ideas" from their release Chimera . < a href=" http://home.comcast.net/~doodl ebug58/The%20Glass%20Canoe%20- %20Happy.mp3">Happy
The wonderfully talented, and I hesitate to agree with the following, psychedelic pop band The Glass Canoe recently premiered their video for "First Ideas" over on My Old Kentucy Blog . We're reposting it here for your visual and aural pleasure. "First Ideas" is aptly named, being the first single from the group's debut album Chimera . The song is carried across the shoulders of a lullaby-inspired guitar melody before fleshing out with equally wonder-inducing instrumentation and sleepy-eyed vocals. There are two intriguing vocal breaks, the latter leading to the crescendo of the track [...]
It would be easier to make a list of what sounds The Glass Canoe don't try and implement into their songs rather than write out a shopping list of what genres do influence their music. If you must know, the best description of the band would fall under the Psychedelic Pop umbrella. The San Diego band formed in the spring of 2009 and since then they've been hard at work compiling tracks for their debut album Chimera . There are many different definitions and meanings for the word "Chimera" but the one that I like the best [...]
Shimmering psychedelapoppers The Glass Canoe formed in spring of 2009, and have been woodshedding the last two years, writing and recording their debut album, Chimera . Percolating lead single First Ideas is our first taste of Chimera , but its ethereal nectar goes down so smooth that I'm betting we hear a lot from these guys in the not so distant future. You know, back before Blu-Ray and DVD, there were videotapes. But even before that, there was actual [...]
More and more folks are coming to the conclusion that those in charge couldn't be more removed from the realities of normal everyday people. The powers that be have no restraint with regard to the hysterical language they use to manipulate, and moreover, they perpetually defy their own supposed philosophies. Also, if I remember correctly, two opposing propositions can both be wrong, but they can't both be right. I think that one has something to do with the law of non-contradiction, but tell it to the politicians. Det Vackra Livet's "Viljan" [...]
What a beautiful Sunday to follow such a dreary Saturday! At least this weekend is ending on a high note, right? Speaking of high notes, for those bummed about yesterday's Hopkins Spring Fair... [go to the website to read the rest of the article, download mp3s and more]
