Sunday Music: "Stainless Steel" By Glitterer
November 16, 2025·0 comments·zg
This might be the most accessible Glitterer / Ned Russin song yet. No, they didn’t go pop. But, they have officially unlocked that “this feels so familiar but not quite like anything else I can think of” state.
“Stainless Steel” pickups where the last full length left off. Getting into the beginning of middle age is weird. Especially in the modern era. Life starts to feel impossible, and as you recognize you’re still in the game, you start figuring out your adult adaptation toolbox.
It keeps repeating now, feels like fate
It's everywhere I turn, I can't escape
I wish I had ability innate
I wish I wasn't incapacitated
What can I do?
Life is hard, so I'm broken in two
I'll pretend that I'm stainless steel
I'll forget that this all is real

So what are those familiar but different touchpoints? What is that California roll magic of Glitterer being something you can casually throw on for rock and indie rock adjacent friends alike?
I told my music critic buddy Kevin Alexander my take. You can see that here. But in more detail - I hear a lot of Weezer.
Huh?
