Worship - House of Glass


Worship know all about euphoria - for a band wrapped in the name of prayer and religion, their debut single House of Glass is suitably ethereal and chuch-like.

The airy wisps of the track's hooks glow with a luminescent, ghostly power - this is not the flat, uninspired crystal of modern office blocks but the dazzling multitude of ancient stained glass.

Slotting neatly alongside contemporaries like Delphic, House of Glass is darkly slick synth-pop echoing shades of the Hacienda glory days.

The 1st December sees the Reading-based band play their single-launch show, supported by fellow spook-pop act Alpines. The setting? It could only be a chuch: St Pancras Old Church to be precise.

House of Glass is released on the 21st November.
