Glories, a post-rock collective of musicians based in Birmingham, Alabama, began composing music in the fall of 2011. Through creativity and a strong emphasis placed on composition, Glories creates sweeping sounds and melodic themes that conjure an emotional response from the listener. They have self-released 4 albums, with their fifth album set to be released in 2024.
“Glories seem to always have their pulse on melodies and backline rhythms that permit listeners to become part of the arrangement. Displaying such finesse and maturity with song structure and phrasing more closely associated with storytelling. Creating a narrative arc within music that allows us to choose our own emotion.” - Echoesanddust.com
“Given that post-rock bands are a dime-a-dozen now, it’s difficult to find ones that break the mold and Glories doesn’t disappoint. They create complex compositions that are emotive, with epic hills and valleys throughout. Their tones and various textures are perfectly chosen and their use of the electronic aspects add beautiful drone-like depth to their songs. There is No Stillness is a mature album, demonstrating that Glories brings to the post-rock landscape a decisively creative work riddled with epic soundscapes.” - somewherecold.net
"Glories invites the listener to get lost in their sound, and more importantly, offers a sound conducive to dreaming." - A Closer Listen
