The Glim Project is a full out rock band; a unique, hyper-energetic mish mash that cannot really fit into one category in todays rock scene. So what do you get when you listen to the Glim Project? You get a singer/guitarist who is trying his damndest to channel Axl Rose while playing dream theater riffs, a drummer who grew up on a steady diet of NOFX, Tool and Nirvana, a second guitarist who is equally in love with Neil Young and Fugazi, and a bassist who listens to the most extreme metal created, and whose last band was probably one of the scariest groups you've ever heard.
The Glim Project started in 2004 when guitarists Lucanus and Geoff left the pop rock outfit D-Brane. Within weeks they had enlisted Geoffs schoolmate Marco for the drumming. In turn, Marco contacted his old college roommate Ian, whom, upon hearing their new creation, moved from Alberta to give it a shot. Starting with a few old D-Brane tunes, they soon found themselves striving to be much more hard edged, partly due to their appreciation of bands like ATDI, Mastadon, and Dream Theater.
The debut self titled album (released October 2006), along with obtaining great reviews from such sources as "The Vancouver Province" newspaper, has hit airwaves at college radio stations and obtained frequent play from Vancouver's cFox. 2 summer tours in Europe, touring of the interior of B.C. and nearly 100 shows in, the Glim project boys are regrouping and refocusing thier energy for thier 2nd full length album
In August 2008, Luke and Marco entered the studio in Switzerland working with Cedric Habermacher for thier second album. The first 10 tracks will be mixed in November, with an additional 5 tracks mixed in december, for a January 2009 release.
