Album Description
Available in:
And the Glass Handed Kites is the fourth studio album by Danish band Mew, released 19 September 2005 in Denmark, 24 September 2005 in the United Kingdom and 25 July 2006 in the United States on Sony BMG. This was the last Mew album to feature bassist Johan Wohlert, who left the band the following year to focus on being a father.
And the Glass Handed Kites was composed as a single continuous suite. Critics have likened the album to one long song due to the tracks' unnoticed transitions.
And the Glass Handed Kites' sound has been compared to Sigur Rós, Dinosaur Jr., Ride, a concept album and progressive rock. In fact, the album features Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis contributing backing vocals on the tracks "Why Are You Looking Grave?" and "An Envoy to the Open Fields."
And the Glass Handed Kites peaked at #2 on Denmark's Tracklisten. Four singles were released for the album: "Apocalypso," "Special," "Why Are You Looking Grave?" and "The Zookeeper's Boy." Despite originally not having been released as a single, the track "The Zookeeper's Boy" gained massive popularity with the biggest radio station in Denmark, P3, reaching #1 on the radio's Tjeklisten charts from October 9, 2005 through November 6, 2005. The track was voted "Hit of the Year" by Gaffa readers, with another Mew song ("Special") coming in second. "The Zookeeper's Boy" was later released as a single in 2006.[14]
