Sweet Apple, the band of dispersed rockers from groups you've heard before Dinosaur Jr., Cobra Verde and Witch is back! The Golden Age Of Glitter is a 10-song power-pop masterpiece featuring J Mascis, Tim Parnin, John Petkovic and Dave Sweetapple that travels a wide swathe of musical styles; almost as wide as the geography represented by the band. The Golden Age Of Glitter was recorded from California to Massachusetts, with Cleveland in the middle. Along the way, both Mark Lanegan and Robert Pollard showed up to do some killer guest duets! And yes, Sweet Apple cashed in their frequent flyer miles for a trip full of sunny, dark, moody and heavy sounds the kind weve heard these guys do in other bands, but never before like this!
SWEET APPLE features J. Mascis (drums/guitar/vocals, also of Dinosaur Jr.), Cobra Verde's Tim Parnin (guitar) and John Petkovic (vocals/guitar), and Witch's Dave Sweetapple (bass/vocals)!
The Golden Age Of Glitter is the highly-anticipated follow up to SWEET APPLE's critically celebrated album Love & Desperation, a record that featured “70s arena rock-like songs” (Pitchfork) and presented “one stomp box in the power pop of their youth, one in the heavy indie thud they invented” (SPIN).
The Golden Age Of Glitter features special guest appearances from Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, Queens Of The Stone Age) and Robert Pollard (Guided By Voices)!
