Rat Race 01:58
I stay two-faced You can’t touch me Don’t you know I’m the king of the city Watch me strut from place to place Rat race (rat race) Rat race (rat race) I like to delegate I like to make them wait I need that nice suitcase Like they, like they, like they used to make Rat race (rat race) Rat race (rat race) Round and round and round and round and round Round and round and round and round and round Round and round and round and round and round, it go Fake smile handshake I have no time to waste I need that third estate Give me, give me give me, give me a taste Rat race (rat race) Rat race (rat race) Rat race

Klepto 03:04
Unscrewing light bulbs From the dance floor ceiling Stealing a surfboard What the hell is he thinking? Walked it right out the front door Walked it right past the bouncer, oh lord They'll never get their shit back I promise you that... When he's been drinking He's going kleptomaniac He's going klepto He's going klepto He’s stolen a street sign An inflatable bud lite lime Nobody knows why When he’s had 4 or 5 He’s gettin' that look in his eyes It’s gonna be one of those nights they’ll never get their shit back I promise you that... When he's been drinking He's going kleptomaniac He's going klepto He's going klepto When he's been drinking He's going kleptomaniac He's going klepto He's going klepto

I’m rolling the dice On a fried bologna on white From a gas station in nowhere Mississippi And I can’t quite Shake the feeling that I’m not going to make it out alive I get the feeling that I’m gonna die This road is going to chew me up and spit me out So chew me up and spit me out Out Out Rolling into Jackson And I’m headed for the Big Sleep There’s a clawing in my chest I’m looking for some relief I still can’t quite Shake the feeling that I’m not going to make it home this time I get the feeling that I’m gonna die This road is going to chew me up and spit me out So chew me up and spit me Out Out Out Spit me out Out Out Out

Freak out 06:09
Where did I go wrong Where did I go right Threw the first punch But I lost the fight Yeah I tried my best Hope I did alright When that motherfucker stepped on me I couldn’t let it slide I told you I wouldn’t freak out I told you I wouldn’t freak out Not on you I wouldn’t freak out tonight What did I do? Look around the room All these hungry eyes Chewing through all of my arteries Knots come untied Am I not approved? Did I kill the vibe? Promised you I wouldn’t lose my cool And I didn't want to lie I told you I wouldn’t freak out I told you I wouldn’t freak out Not on you I wouldn’t freak out tonight What did I do? I told you I wouldn’t freak out I told you I wouldn’t freak out I told you I wouldn’t freak out I told you I wouldn’t freak out

Stay 05:28
I found you there in the freezing rain How I pitied you, oh you poor thing Oh no, where will you go? Won’t you please please come inside I can’t leave you here in the cold tonight Oh please, rest your weary feet You should stay Oh stay Please please please Won’t you do it for me? You left before the morning light Without the chance to say goodbye Oh no, where did you go? I left my house, searched high and low I found out there and I brought you home You’ll stay, with me always So stay Oh stay Please please please Won’t you do it for me? I stared at you in disbelief Pulled out the knife that you stuck in me Oh no, don’t let me die alone Your face was pale as you backed away I reached for you and began to say Don’t leave, won’t you please Stay Oh stay Please please please Won’t you do it for me? Normal Normal Syncopated Normal Syncopated

about

A fledgling band in the Nashville rock scene Glamper started recording what would become their debut LP RAT RACE in August of 2019. They played some shows. And in March of 2020 the next session was booked, little did they know a global pandemic would postpone their collaboration until 2021…

and thank God it did. …
Those songs are so much better now, and rightly so after Chief Keith played guitar at home alone after work every day, weekly texting CoCo demo recordings. Syncing with Zip, Should we practice this week? Welllll I don’t know… How about this week? Back and forth. Months of this. When do you think it’ll end? It’s getting better? Whoa. On and on.

Present Day: GLAMPER IS BACK BABY! We are ROCK & ROLL, We are PARTY, we are GOOD TIMES, BEST FRIENDS, BEERS, GUITARS, and a mortgage.

Glamper is garage rock with a smirk and worn out VHS tape of Jurassic Park. This Nashville rock n’ roll trio assembled to empty the oceans and set fire to the five day work week. In the rubble and ashes, only Chief Keith Herndon (bass/guitar/vocals), Cory Taylor Cox (bass/guitar/vocals), and Zip Hurst (drums) would be left standing. In the aftermath, they formed a band. A three-headed dragon of greasy guitar licks, swanky bass grooves, and gut-busting drums.


Glamper’s debut album, “Rat Race” deals with everything from jaded corporate drudgery, questionable fried bologna sandwiches, an unexpected love for an ex’s beer-fetching cat, to... murder???. Glamper is finding $20 in your winter coat and buying the next round. Who’s drinking?
