#199 - Glare (Izzy & Toni)
Thursday, 21 August, 2025
Step into another episode of Behind the Vinyl as we welcome Izzy and Toni of Glare into the interview room for an engaging and heartfelt conversation about their journey, their latest record, and everything in between. While some might say Glare “blew up overnight,” the reality is far from effortless. The band has been putting in the work, grinding behind the scenes, and staying focused on their mission. Their latest album, Sunset Funeral, released in April via the legendary Deathwish Inc., is a testament to that dedication. If there’s one word to describe the album, it’s “closure.” In this episode, Izzy and Toni reflect on what the record means to them, both personally and creatively. From the rainy, uncharacteristically gloomy weeks spent recording in Los Angeles, to the emotional depth behind tracks like Morning Haze and Guts, the album explores themes of grief, healing, and—ultimately—hope. The duo shares how their songwriting process is fluid and intuitive, often allowing songs to unfold naturally with layers of meaning open to interpretation. While much of Sunset Funeral channels pain and reflection, it also leaves space for light and resilience to break through. As the band finds their rhythm balancing tour life and creative cycles, this episode gives a deeper look into how they’re staying grounded, inspired, and ready for what’s next. If you haven’t already, give Sunset Funeral a listen—or spin it again. It’s a record built to stand the test of time. 🎧 Tune in now and get behind the vinyl with Glare.
