There is lots of talk about Glassjaw (http://www.glassjaw.com) going through major lineup changes. Please do note that the band will NOT be breaking up however, and will still be playing the December show with Thursday. The Jaw apparently have been demoing some new material too, for those that are getting as impatient as me.

I agree 100%.


Does anyone know who they're replacing or getting new? I know there were talks of Todd leaving, but anyone else?

the word is that only 2/5 of the band will stay.

hopefully it's Daryl and Beck, since they're pretty much the two founding members.

if only 2 of them are gonna stay then they should just break up...and not possibly ruin a good thing...

it probably will be daryl and beck if the 2/5s rumor is true. that really sucks though, especially larry, i like his style

what would suck is that since Daryl has head automatica, and starting another side project, maybe GJ is gonna go all "further-seems-forever" and switch singers... that would qualify as major lineup change

if for some reason it did happen, they shouldn't even call themselves gj anymore. Daryl IS gj

if it really is 2/5's, thatd be kind of weird if it were beck and daryl because larry is in head automatica WITH daryl, so you'd think he'd still be down with GJ too...but that's just an assumption...

Beck's an egotistcial prick form my understanding.

It may not be a matter of HIM being down with glassjaw.

i haven't heard anything about this before.. can you elaborate on anything? or is it all just talk? Just curious cause I'd love to hear something from beck where he actually proves this.

The rumor is that Daryl and Beck are kicking everyone else out of the band and starting fresh. Just rumor though.

hopefully the 2/5 rumor is false, i gotta see this band at least once in my life, new stuff is anticipated greatly

I dont want to be the gossip or drama queen but I can say Daryl was the only member of the band who was 100% fond of Beck. Keep in mind that I am not in the band and I can't vouch or claim to have had bad experiences with him personally, but I know a lot of people close to GJ who have an intense distaste for Beck and the way he does things.

Just wait, the band will make an official announcement shortly. I can assure you March was 100% accurate with what he's said so far in this thread, but just wait for the official release I guess.

WHAT!?
Dude,do you have any idea how many lineup changes Glassjaw has been through??
I dont wanna see the lineup change at all,i love all the guys they have now but trust me..
No lineup change is gonna ruin ANY good thing called the glassjaw.
I assure everyone.


ill be the first person on earth to purchase the new glassjaw c.d..whenever it may come out.

arent Daryl and Beck the only 2 that do the writing for gj? So I dont think much will change.

Considering most glassjaw songs are about being edge, and everyone in glassjaw was edge at one point, and daryl broke edge, and head automatica is getting big I am sure he is probably out.

not at all. i don't think there would be a gj without daryl. and i'd be blown away if beck left too. i'm thinking those are the two staying. hopefully...

and only a few songs mention straight edge at all. nowhere near "most", and only beck and daryl were ever the straightedge members. other than those two, they've had a revolving door of other memberes.

Daryl is still in and will be for atleast one more GJ release

larry didnt play drums on any of the cds.....

If anything, I would think that Beck, Daryl and Larry stay. Daryl and Larry are close and Daryl and Beck are close. That's all they really need in terms of creating. Either way, if Beck and Daryl stay, I'm still interested.

That sounds ridiculous. I sure hope none of this is true. This line up was definately the best line up they have had so far. I just want new stuff.

as ridiculous as it sounds its true...except that daryl didnt kick anyone out beck did...there will be replacements for todd larry and dave for the shows but as far as recording daryl and beck will probably do it all themselves...i personally think its a pretty stupid thing to do and that if they do do another cd it will just tank like the other ones did...not that i dont think they were great its just that they didnt sell enough to make it...

I'd rather the whole band break up then to lose the guys they have now.

Ehh more like weirdest dude ever. haha I mean he might have an ego but who doesnt now in bands? Honestly. Every single member from a Long Island band are egotistical (with the exception of Doug from The Sleeping).
But honestly from my personal experence Beck was always really cool to me and my friend who worked for him and only for a summer I would add, so if anything thats more of a reason to be dicks to us since we arent perminate staff.



About the Glassjaw situation, it is alittle messed up that Todd will not be in Glassjaw but maybe it's for the best.

And yes I need new Glassjaw material as well!
